Optimizing
Many of the settings you select affect the performance of the system. You can set up
the system to do the data acquisition as fast as possible, or to give you as much
information during the acquisition as possible, which often means a more secure
operation.
7.3.1 For Speed
Sometimes, for example in marine seismic surveys, it is important to obtain fast data
acquisition. There are some operations that can be modified, or even skipped, to
enhance the acquisition speed. Still, there are some operations that are fixed, and to this
category belong the actual data acquisition (sampling procedure), transfer of the data
from acquisition memory to trace memory, and writing of the data to disk.
However, the following should be considered:
―
Do not display data after shooting, i.e. set
Stack Mode
to "Fast stack" since
scaling of traces takes a considerable time (chapter 4.6.5.1).
―
Use as short records as possible (
No of samples
) (chapter 4.6.5.1).
