Sample Question
Why is it useful to transform the seismic data from time domain to frequency domain,before processing and analysing them?

Time series data is complicated because it is unclear when certain events occur.

It will easier to analyse the seismic data through amplitude and phase in frequency domain.

Frequency data has smaller data space size, thus can accommodate more information.

Final seismic data use for interpretation is in frequency domain.
