[[Working Workshops]] as opposed to "talking workshops" are meetings where the participants work together (possibly divided into pairs or small teams) to develop new software code or to conduct computational experiments addressing a particular problem.  In this workshop participants will work in small groups using their own open or proprietary software to process the same 3D land data set.  Participants will share input data, processing parameters, and output data so their results can be reproduced in the future by others.

==Agenda==
 
 
This working workshop invites research geophysicists, programmers, students, processing geophysicists and others to collaborate on a single 3D dataset. Example projects are:
 
* Learn 3D land processing concepts using the reproducible processing scripts in Madagascar.
 
* Process data through a single program or a partial processing sequence and compare to the previous results.  Test to find better parameters.
 
* Create a new program or improve an existing program and demonstrate on the dataset.
 
* Identify an interesting problem in the data, work on a solution.
 
* Create examples to motivate a future researcher to work on an interesting problem.
 
* Create 3D land processing training material.
 
* Modify/adapt/change one of the items above or come up with something completely on your own.
 
 
 
Participants are expected to bring laptops with the software they will use to process the seismic data during the workshop. Wifi internet access will be provided.

2016 Working Workshop Attendees

Workingworkshop participants 2016.jpg

Overview

Working Workshops as opposed to "talking workshops" are meetings where the participants work together (possibly divided into pairs or small teams) to develop new software code or to conduct computational experiments addressing a particular problem.

This workshop invited participants to extent the results of the 2015 SEG 3D Seismic Processing Working Workshop. The workshop 2016 report is here. Processing templates created in that workshop were incorporated in the reproducible processing flows and new programs in Madagascar. The objective of the 2016 working workshop were:

  • Use the scripts to develop seismic processing skills.
  • Reproduce and improve these results in other proprietry or open software
  • Extend Madagascar, Seismic Unix, or other open software packages.

The workshop was held August 17-20, 2016 at the Bureau of Economic Geology's Houston Research Center. It was attended by 21 participants from 9 organizations. The participants were students, post doctoral fellows, academic staff, and industry professionals. The meeting was sponsored by Rice University (TRIP), University of Texas at Austin (TCCS), and SEG.

Participants made final "lightning talk" presentations describing the programs, parameters, and data (input and output) in sufficient detail so the results can be reproduced after the workshop. The presentations, description of programs and parameters used, input data, and output data are archived and available for training and research.

Many participants started with existing reproducible Madagascar scripts from this link. Participants brought laptops with the software to use to process the seismic data during the workshop. We learned by comparing results from various software systems and archiving a set of processing templates. It was an opportunity for academics to pick up some of the "art" of seismic processing from seasoned industry processing staff. It was also an opportunity for industry to illustrate interesting problems in land processing and "set up" example scripts for university researchers to validate their theory.

Post Working Workshop Evaluation

Six out of eight surveyed after the event said they would attend another working workshop. Seven out of eight would recommend the workshop to a friend. When asked to recommend a dataset, three recommended processing Teapot Dome again and three recommend processing a land 2D dataset. The survey said the best part of the workshop was collaborating with people from different universities and backgrounds.
