Published purpose

The Eco-Seis approach to seismic acquisition combines alternative geometries with a unique distribution of sources and is not limited to a single source type or a single model. Rather, this method combines new minimal impact seismic sources with a sparse distribution of conventional sources, then applies these sources in a unique geometry focused on maintaining sensitive habitat and minimizing surface disturbances while also providing high quality seismic data and safe access for field personnel. This method will work with geometry variations and multiple source types, increasing the ability to minimize surface disturbance and making it possible to apply the method in many different types of terrains both within Canada and internationally.
