STRYDE Lens™ - In-field processing
EAGE First Break (January 2025)
In this article, we will explore the current challenges in-field land seismic processing is facing and examine how modern acquisition systems and data processing techniques can potentially enable real-time imaging directly at the point of data acquisition.
Edge computing is a distributed computing paradigm that brings data computation closer to the location where it is acquired. From enabling near-instantaneous diagnoses in medical imaging to driving real-time decisions in smart cities and autonomous vehicles, Edge computing has transformed many industries by reducing the time between data collection and decision-making, overcoming challenges related to analysis of large data volumes.
In the seismic industry, this concept more or less aligns with field seismic data processing, though the definitions of its deliverables have evolved over time, this concept was mainly constrained by the limitations of the computing hardware and the complexity of seismic processing.
