In Weglein et al. (2010) an update and status report were provided on the progress inverse scattering series (ISS) direct depth imaging without velocity model. that report, results synthetics with sufficient realism indicated field data tests warranted. This paper documents those first tests. These early are encouraging indicate ISS is possible. The next steps road between viable providing relevant differential added value to seismic tool-box described discussed.
