Geophysical Data Processing - Convolution - Part 1

Convolution: is a mathematical operation defining the change of shape of a waveform resulting from its passage through a filter. Convolution is one of the basic geophysical data processing operations applied on a waveform. The principles and calculation of convolution (and other operations such as deconvolution, cross-correlation and auto-correlation) are explained is this series of videos. All these operations form the common basis for many methods of geophysical data processing, especially in the field of seismic reflection surveying.
