Would you like to know what data is on your media without having to read it?

The business case for proactive data management of archived legacy data is undeniable.
The nature and diversity of seismic acquisition and processing techniques, together with a range of historical formats, means that handling geoscience data can be difficult. Without expert personnel who possess comprehensive experience of past field practices and procedures and an understanding of current industry standards and technology applications, data can easily become corrupted or even lost forever if this valuable information asset is mishandled.

Data transcription sounds easy, but can become a minefield, particularly with legacy geoscience data. In our experience, third-party transcribed data is often copied in an unstructured manner which can make subsequent data access problematic and slow.

At Moveout we recognise this and have designed our Transcription+ workflow to ensure that data is transcribed to a logically named file structure that matches our customers’ specific naming conventions. This means that users will be able to find the specific information they need quickly and easily, saving them time and effort in getting to work on their data.

Transcription+ delivers:

• Faster data access
• Improved usability of geoscience data
• Better data reporting capability
• Reduced risk of data loss
• Reduced threat of technical obsolescence
• Dramatically reduced or eliminated data storage costs
