Exploration-geophysical datasets

Each dataset has an associated README file specifying its terms of usage. You are required to read and agree to the terms of usage applying to a dataset before using it.

Please try to download datasets during times of off-peak network usage. Some files have been compressed using the UNIX command ``gzip --best''; these files can only be downloaded one at a time through a bandwidth-limited ftp server.

2D Synthetic datasets available on software.seg.org

These datasets are also now included in the SEG wiki collection, and that's the preferred place to download them from now.

• Two Hess VTI datasets for testing 2D anisotropic migration.
• The 2004 BP Velocity-Analysis Benchmark dataset from the velocity-analysis workshop at the 2004 EAGE meeting, Paris, France.
• The ``1997 2.5D'' dataset, from ``Strike shooting, dip shooting, widepatch shooting -- Does prestack migration care? A model study'', by Etgen and Regone.
• The ``Model94'' dataset from ``Migration from topography: Improving the near-surface image'', by Gray and Marfurt.
• Mike O'Brien's ``Statics94'' dataset created to test processing techniques for handling near-surface statics.

• The SEG wiki maintains an extensive collection of open datasets. This is a good place to begin.
