Trace
Term · Oil and gas · MLC-T-OAG-003878
A single recording of seismic data from one receiver, representing the ground motion over time at that specific location. It is a time series of amplitude values that reflect the acoustic energy returning from the subsurface. A seismic section is composed of many individual traces displayed side-by-side.
