Energy

Name

Energy -- Attribute that returns the energy of a trace segment

Description




This attribute calculates the squared sum of the sample values in the specified time-gate divided by the number of samples in the gate. The Energy is a measure of reflectivity in the specified time-gate. The higher the Energy, the higher the Amplitude. This attribute enhances, among others, lateral variations within seismic events and is, therefore, useful for seismic object detection (e.g. chimney detection).
