Abstract:

The purpose of this study is to provide a guideline for the effective selection of wavelet type in Civil Engineering applications. Seismic denoising is the process of removing noises, ie., the unwanted disturbances present in seismic waves are removed. In seismic exploration, seismic signals are affected by a variety of interference, disturbance and noises, its related seismic data resolution to be reduced. Therefore, denoising is necessary in terms of seismic data processing, so explained in this paper.

Keywords:
