L160 Narrabri (Gunnedah Basin) three component high resolution seismic survey, NSW, 2003

An experimental high-resolution seismic survey was undertaken in the Pilliga State Forest near Narrabri, NSW in April 2003. The Australian National Seismic Imaging Resource (ANSIR) carried out the field work on behalf of a Geoscience Australia research project. A NSW State Forests Special Purposes Permit was obtained for the survey.This survey was designed to collect a seismic dataset for shallow high-resolution seismic imaging in an area of known high data quality. Both P- and S-wave seismic sources were employed with data recorded using 14 Hz 3 component geophones. The objective of this project was to provide researchers with an over-sampled multi-component, multi-source shallow high-resolution seismic data set for the development of acquisition and processing methodologies.
