Inversion of walkaway VSP data in the presence of lateral velocity heterogeneity

Multi-azimuth walkaway vertical seismic profiling is an established technique for the estimation of in situ slowness surfaces and inferring anisotropy parameters. Normally, this technique requires the assumption of lateral homogeneity, which makes the horizontal slowness components at depths of down...
