HIGH-RESOLUTION SEISMIC METHOD AND SYSTEM FOR DETECTING UNDERGROUND ARCHEOLOGIC STRUCTURES

Abstract

The present application pertains to methods and systems for detecting an underground archeologic structure. The method comprises transmitting P (longitudinal) -waves and S (shear)- waves into the earth. Reflected P (longitudinal) -waves and reflected S (shear)- waves are then received using one or more receivers located on the surface of the earth and one or more receivers located beneath the surface of the earth. The underground archeologic structure is identified using a differentiation between the one or more receivers located on the surface of the earth and the one or more receivers located beneath the surface of the earth.
