We describe a method for slant stacking seismic records at a number of ranges to synthesize the τ—ρ curve. The seismograms do not have to be evenly spaced in range and the correct three‐dimensional point‐source geometry is retained throughout. The problem is posed as a linear inverse problem in a form that permits the construction of a special solution in a very efficient manner.
