A bstract Multicover measurements in refraction shooting are comparable to long‐spread reflection shooting. Of course, spread length, distance of traces and offset may be larger than in reflection shooting and depend on the, depth, the velocity and the dipping of the refractors to be detected. For later processing an equation for the refractor velocity is derived in case of flat and steep dipping refractors. The depth and the angle of dip will be computed from delay times. An outlook to digital processing is given.
