The researches shows that the explicit account of the seismic waves velocities anisotropy is preferable comparing to the traditional one, the meaning of which became clear due to the authors’ publications. The main advantages of an explicit account of seismic anisotropy are:
the usage of a depth scale, not the time scale, in seismic data processing and interpretation;
depth-velocity modeling without using the technologies of common midpoint method, thus, preventing from a number of errors, which is highly important for 3-D seismic;
possibility to use technology of seismic images anisotropic decomposition. Dnieper-Donetsk depression seismic data processing results convincingly demonstrate the advantages of the seismic anisotropy explicit account for seismic imaging of anisotropic media.
