Conclusions

The resolution of the survey data has significant impact on ability to accurately define depths using spectral analysis High resolution surveys with line spacings of 200 and 400m are needed to image subtle intersedimentary horizons Widely spaced surveys of 1600 and 2000m are unlikely to resolve shallow features
