The new development and foreground expectation of seismic exploration

Upgrade of seismic equipment and data processing software becomes more and more quickly,and seis-mic acquisition,processing and interpretation tend to be integrated.Some new development of seismic exploration over the world is summarized in the paper.There exists some gap in the seismic technology between China and other countries.Combined with the actual situation of coal seismic exploration,new technical thinking was put forward for future development of coal seismic exploration.
