SUVELAN_NCCS - compute stacking VELocity panel for cdp gathers using Normalized CrossCorrelation Sum suvelan_uccs stdout [optional parameters] Optional Parameters: nx=tr.cdpt number of traces in cdp nv=50 number of velocities dv=50.0 velocity sampling interval fv=1500.0 first velocity smute=1.5 samples with NMO stretch exceeding smute are zeroed dtratio=5 ratio of output to input time sampling intervals nsmooth=dtratio*2+1 length of smoothing window verbose=0 =1 for diagnostic print on stderr pwr=1.0 semblance value to the power Notes: Normalized CrossCorrelation sum: sum all possible crosscorrelation trace pairs in a CMP gather for each trial velocity and zero-offset two-way travel time inside a time window. This coherence measure is normalized by dividing each crosscorrelation trace pair by the geometric mean of the energy, inside the chosen time window, of each trace pair involved in each crosscorrelation. Then, to achieve a maximum amplitude of unity, the result is multiplied by 2/(M(M-1)), which is the inverse of the total number of crosscorrelation. The normalization allows to bring out weak reflection as long as these reflections have moveouts close to a hyperbola.
