Madagascar School of Reproducible Computational Geophysics and Hands-On Workshop

 

Program

Day 1: Friday, July 23
9:00-10:30 Introduction (Sergey Fomel)
10:30-10:45 break
10:45-12:15 Workflows in SCons and automatic testing (Jim Jennings)
12:15-1:15 Lunch
1:15-2:45 Seismic finite-difference modeling and migration example (Paul Sava)

The theoretical part of this module provides an overview of reverse-time imaging methodology applied to wavefield seismic data. The main technique discussed is reverse-time migration with emphasis on modern imaging conditions which enable migration velocity analysis and amplitude-versus-angle analysis. The applied part demonstrates this technique on a complex geologic model using Madagascar codes in a fully reproducible setup.

2:45-3:00 break
