Techniques are disclosed relating to geophysical surveying. In various embodiments, a computer system may access seismic data for a geological formation, where the seismic data is recorded, using one or more sensors, during a seismic survey in which a first vibratory source was driven using a first digital code for at least a first time interval. The first digital code, in some embodiments, may include a first plurality of subsections corresponding to portions of the first time interval. In some embodiments, the computer system may image a first location of the geological formation using a correlation of only a first sub-section of the first plurality of sub-sections with the seismic data. Further, in some embodiments, the computer system may image a second location of the geological formation using a correlation of two or more of the first plurality of sub-sections with the seismic data.

A method of generating geophysical data using at least one source. The method may include the steps of generating a geophysical wavefield with a varying signature using at least one source, wherein the signature is varied in a periodic pattern.

Estimating an earth response can include deconvolving a multi-dimensional source wavefield from near-continuously recorded seismic data recorded at a receiver position. The deconvolving can include spreading the near-continuously recorded seismic data across a plurality of possible source emission angles. The result of the deconvolution can be the earth response estimate.

A method for applying separated wave-field imaging onshore (1) by artificially creating up-going and down-going fields and (2) by using these fields in a migration algorithm. If there are any surface multiples in the data, the resulting image created using the migration algorithm will be distorted by the unknown free-surface reflection coefficient. In fact, the surface multiples may be generated with a complex series of reflection coefficients. The distortions found in the resulting image created using the migration algorithm are then removed.

A computer implemented method for identifying reservoir facies in a subsurface region includes obtaining a set of seismic data points of both petrophysical and geophysical parameters relating to the subsurface region, identifying one or more correlated clusters of petrophysical parameters, generating, from the one or more correlated clusters of petrophysical parameters, one or more corresponding multi-dimensional clusters of seismic data points, storing, in a facies database, a multi-dimensional cluster center point for at least one multi-dimensional clusters, and recursively splitting the multi-dimensional clusters into distinct sub-clusters of seismic data points corresponding to facies types.
