A new seismic image enhancement method based on mathematical morphology

Seismic images are collected by seismic sensors. Containing the geological information of geological structures such as strata and crater, these images are of high significance. However, due to the complexity of their backgrounds, edges of structures to be studied appear blurry. This paper proposes a method to enhance the strata and crater structures using morphology. Opening and closing operations are used to enhance crater and multiscale morphological gradient is employed to show the strata. Experiment´s result shows that this method performs well in both efficiency and effectiveness.
