A digital seismic data acquisition and processing system using a PC has been developed in order to replace the analog data acquisition system of shallow marine seismic survey. An A/D converter that has 12bits of resolution and 225KHz of conversion rate was ued to acquire data, and a data acquisition software was developed as a Windows program which provides convenience of use. Raw data acquired at field has been saved to the hard-disk simultaneously. The signal to noise ratio, vertical and horizontal resolution could be improved by a digital data processing of the raw data. The digital processing of the raw data includss gain recovery, filtering, deconvolution, and muting. With the prediction deconvolution algorithm multiple reflections appearing on the shallow marine seismic section could be removed successfully.

Recent trend in petroleum/gas exploration is an application of 3D seismic exploration technique. Unlike the conventional 2D seismic data processing, 3D seismic data processing is considered as the one which requires expensive commercial software systems and high performance computer. This paper propose a practical 3D seismic processing methodology on a personal computer using public domain software such as SU, SEPlib, and SEPlib3D. The applicability of the proposed method has been demonstrated by successful application to a well known realistic 3D synthetic data, SEG/EAGE 3D salt model data.

Seismic reflection method is applied to detect shallow location of limestone in Chechon area. The data using hammer source is compared with that of weight drop. Small size hammer and weight-drop are used as energy source and 100Hz geophones are used for data aquisition. Data processing is conducted utilizing the available processing technique of "Geobit", which is seismic data processing software developed by KIGAM. The result of above data processing, the velocity of topsoil layer is 1,250m/sec. The velocity of this area is higher than other area because loading trucks pass this area and make this layer compact. And in limestone area, hammer is proposed to energy source instead of weight drop because the energy propagates the layer very well.

The high resolution seismic data processing essentially requires the latest data processing technology with a system which enables to calculate the large volume of input/output and computing of data. Nowadays, there is a high foreign dependency on the data processing and QC. In this research, The test processing had been carried out to deduce the best suited software by evaluating functionality, usability and user environment. And several attempts are made to select the most appropriated specification of hardware in order to maximize the software efficiency. The results showed that more numbers of multiple and noise were eliminated in existing prestack time migration sections, which effectively enhanced the resolution.

In order to improve the ground-motion prediction equation, which is an important factor in seismic hazard assessment, it is essential to obtain good quality seismic data for a region. The Korean Peninsula has an environment in which it is difficult to obtain strong ground motion data. However, because digital seismic observation networks have become denser since the mid-2000s and moderate earthquake events such as the Odaesan earthquake (Jan. 20, 2007, M_L 4.8), the 9.12 Gyeongju earthquake (Sep. 12, 2016, M_L 5.8), and the Pohang earthquake (Nov. 15, 2017, M_L 5.4) have occurred, some good empirical data on ground motion could have been accumulated. In this study, we tried to build a ground motion database that can be used for the development of the ground motion attenuation equation by collecting seismic data accumulated since the 2000s. The database was constructed in the form of a flat file with RotD50 peak ground acceleration, 5% damped pseudo-spectral acceleration, and meta information related to hypocenter, path, site, and data processing. The seismic data used were the velocity and accelerogram data for events over M_L 3.0 observed between 2003 and 2019 by the Korean National Seismic Network administered by the Korea Meteorological Administration. The final flat file contains 10,795 ground motion data items for 141 events. Although this study focuses mainly on organizing earthquake ground-motion waveforms and their data processing, it is thought that the study will contribute to reducing uncertainty in evaluating seismic hazard in the Korean Peninsula if detailed information about epicenters and stations is supplemented in the future.

Common-mid-point (CMP) seismic data on a dipping layer have have a stacking different from a horizontal layer velocity and the reflection points on data are dispersed to many positions. Therefore, the CMP data are not stacked well by the conventional stacking method using the horizontal layer velocity. The CMP gather can ideally stacked by applying dip-moveout(DMO) processing. Hence, modern seismic processing indludes DMO as an essential routine step. DMO processing techniques are broadly categorized by two, Fourier transform and integral methods, each of which has many different computational schemes. In this study, the dip-decomposition technique of the Fourier transform method is used to test the DMO effect on the synthetic scismic data generated for dipping structures. Each of constnat offset sections NMO corrected by using the layer velocity of the model and DMO processed. The resulting zero-offset sections for many offsets are stacked. The stacked sections with DMO processing show the structural boundaries of the models much better than those without DMO processing.

The system is accomplished with a data acquisition program which controls the system and a data processing software. With the PC-based shallow marine seismic survey system high-resolution 2-D marine seismic profiles which have high S/N ratios can be obtained after appropriate data processing.

Marine seismic processing is characterized by a great amount of data, several professional processing steps, and various parameters to be decided in each step. In general, adequate processing sequence and optimum parameters are obtained through test processing with sample set of data representing the whole group. The sequence and parameters are then applied in processing the whole data. In this paper, optimum processing sequence and parameters for the data acquired in Korean continental shelf are examined through test processing with real data. Finally, a good-quality migration section is produced using those sequence and parameters decided on the basis of the test results.
