Seismic tomography

  

Seismic refraction method is a geophysical method that has been developed for shallow subsurface investigation. It provides 2-dimensional profiles including depth and distance that simplified the characterization of relatively large volumes of the subsurface. Interpretation of seismic refraction data using seismic tomography involves continuous velocity gradient across a subsurface which is more effective for site characterization compared to conventional seismic refraction.
