    Introduction to Side Scan Sonar It is a high resolution seismic

    tool that provides coverage toboth sides of a surveyvessels track.

    Side scan sonar wasdeveloped during World War IIat the British NationalInstitute of Oceanography todetect submerged enemy

    submarines. It is an acoustical instrument

    that is normally towed behinda vessel and emits acousticalsignals to both sides.

    "ROCESSIN# O' HI#H RESO$%TION SEISMIC DATA

    he ac(uired seismic re8ection data contains a lot of noise. hesenoises are removed by applying sophisticated processing techni(uesmostly with state"of"art seismicdata processing software package.

    he basic ob#ective of all seismic processing is to convert the

    information recorded in the !eld into a form that facilitates geologicalinterpretation.

    he resultant processed data provides a structural image of the sub"surface which allows one to map sub"surface distribution of seismicse(uences depositional environments rock facies and structural trends.

    he purpose of seismic data processing is to manipulate theac(uired data into an image that can be used to infer the sub"surface structure.

    4rocessing consists of the application of a series of computerroutines to the ac(uired data guided by the processinggeophysicist

    SEISMIC RESO$%TION

    VERTICA$RESO$%TION ,

    seismic resolution is the ability to distinguish separatefeaturesK in other words the minimum distance betweentwo features so that the two can be identi!ed separatelyrather than as one feature. normally we think ofresolution in the vertical sense

    HORI4ONTA$ RESO$%TION ,

    +ori'ontal resolution refers to how close two re8ecting

    points can be situated hori'ontally and yet berecogni'ed as two separate points rather than one. hearea that produces the re8ection is known as the ?irst?resnel Mone3 the re8ecting 'one in the subsurfaceinsoni!ed by the !rst (uarter of a wavelength. If thewavelength is large then the 'one over which there8ection returns is larger and the resolution is lower.
