System and method of processing data on a peripheral device

[0012]FIG. 1 illustrates a system 10 configured to generate readings of at least one seismic shot within a seismic volume of interest 12. System 10 records information related to the rate of propagation and / or the reflection of seismic waves within seismic volume of interest 12. From the information recorded by system 10, information related to seismic volume of interest 12 is determined. For example, a velocity model, a density model, an elasticity model, and / or other information related to seismic volume of interest 12 may be specified. In one embodiment, system 10 includes a source 14 and a set of seismic sensors 16.

[0013]In one embodiment, source 14 generates waves within the seismic volume of interest 12. As such, source 14 is a source of seismic wavefields that propagate through seismic volume of interest 12. Source 14 may generate seismic waves that enter the seismic volume of interest 12, and / or source 14 may physically impact the surface of seismic volume of interest 12
