ABSTRACT OF THE DISCLOSURE EXPLORATION SYSTEM FOR CROSS-STEERING AND STACKING SEISMIC DATA USING A SAWTOOTH TRAVERSE OF SHOT POINTS CENTRALLY SPACED BETWEEN AT LEAST A PAIR OF LINEAR DETECTOR SPREADS In areal seismic exploration, seismic impulses are generated successively at locations spaced along a centrally located, asymmetric sawtooth shot-point line which regularly crosses a median line coincident with the line of survey. Seismic waves resulting from each impulse are detected at at least a pair of detector spreads each parallel to the median line, but offset from each other a distance equal to an integral multiple of the vertical offset of the shot-point line. Preferably the detected signals are summed on a cross-steered basis, such that the resulting traces associated with crossed sets of center- points normal to the survey line provide directional ("dip") information to better indicate areal subsurface structure. Additionally, the detected signals can be stacked on a common depth point basis (CDPS).
