The aim of this session is to present recent developments on depth imaging (e.g. prestack depth migration), as well as traveltime and waveform inversion schemes of active seismic data that take into account the increase of computer power and the evolution of acquisition systems (e.g. multicomponent, low frequency sources, dense wide-aperture, geometries, 3D geometries). Any kind of application and investigation at different scales highlighting theoretical, methodological or technical advances is welcome.
