Legacy data modeling
This resource is part of the asset-centric data model.
  • New projects: We recommend using the data modeling service for greater flexibility and performance.
  • Existing projects: This resource remains fully supported for maintaining legacy applications.
The seismic API provides access to seismic survey data stored in CDF. You can download individual seismic objects as SEG-Y files or batch download multiple objects as a ZIP archive.

What you can do

  • List seismic objects — Discover available seismic surveys and data in your project.
  • Download SEG-Y files — Retrieve individual seismic objects in the standard SEG-Y format.
  • Batch download — Download multiple seismic objects as a ZIP archive for offline processing.

Key concepts

This API is primarily used by geoscience applications that need to access subsurface survey data. SEG-Y is the industry standard format for seismic data interchange, ensuring compatibility with leading interpretation and analysis tools.
Use the seismic API when you need to integrate seismic data into interpretation workflows, reservoir modeling, or subsurface analysis applications.
