%X The need to rapidly evaluate the immense quantity of seismic data being acquired by marine and land crews has focused attention on the development of an interactive seismic interpretation system using computer technology.Improvements in hardware and software and in the price/ performance ratio of computers make them more accessible for routine interpretation procedures.Advances in the development of interactive interpretation systems allow the geophysicist to exercise more control over the contouring, datuming, and other functions as the interpretations proceed. He can view graphically the results of major or minor changes in various parameters and their effects on the overall interpretation. Most important, the geophysicist has more time to apply his skills and experience to developing technically and geologically sound evaluations of areas or prospects.
