The data acquired during seismic survey can be used to calculated the depth of sub-surfaces such as ocean or river floor, which is essential in calculating the height of buildings or dam during construction.

Seismic data are obtained from reflection of sound waves (seismic waves) projected beneath the sub-surface.

Seismic data are acquired during seismic survey in geophysical exploration and it uses the principles of seismology to estimate the properties of the Earth's subsurface from reflected seismic waves.

For example;

  • one of the data acquired in seismic survey is transit time or two way time.
  • the two way time is used to estimate the depth of ocean or river floor, which can be used to calculate the depth to build the dam or other infrastructures.

Thus, the data acquired during seismic survey can be used to calculated the depth of sub-surfaces such as ocean or river floor, which is essential in calculating the height of buildings or dam during construction.
