Problem
In marine surveys, receiver interval could be large (especially in cross line direction)
Solution: Use interferometric interpolation

• Conclusions and future work
Conclusions
• 3D marine SSP data can be interpolated with interferometry.
• Proposed approach is successfully tested on a synthetic model.
• Number of receivers can be increased 8 to 10 times by interferometry.
Future Work
• Extrapolation of the data
• Test on field data, we need field data to complete this part
