Graphical Migration?

edit

I understand what the author is trying to say in this section, and the diagram is very good, but I'm not sure that this is actually a form of migration. It's just a way of determining the origin of a reflection at zero offset and if this method was used on a dipping reflector, migration would then be needed. A google for "graphical migration" only returns 703 results, as opposed to 784,000 and 234,000 for time and depth migration respectively. Nwhit (talk) 10:56, 8 February 2012 (UTC)Reply

Why not "Seismic migration"?

edit

Is there any other geophysical method that uses migration? If not, this article should probably be moved to Seismic migration for clarity. Hamsterlopithecus (talk) 08:56, 21 May 2011 (UTC)Reply

I searched a few standard books on applied geophysics and found no reference to migration of any other kind of data. So I moved the article. RockMagnetist (talk) 22:57, 12 February 2012 (UTC)Reply
