What We Offer
SEAM is your partner in large-scale numerical modeling. We offer access to specialized products to advance research and innovation in geophysics.
PROJECTS
Are shaped by participating companies for real-world relevance—while sharing the cost of large-scale model design to minimize risk and expense.
DATA SETS
Capture realistic geological complexity and acquisition conditions to advance R&D, accelerate training, and test new technologies with confidence.
OPEN DATA
Shares selected datasets from past projects to support research, education, and technology development — at no cost.
PARTICIPANTS
Create breakthrough datasets for their own problem-solving — then, after three years, release them to advance industry standards.
“SEAM datasets have become ‘standard’ benchmarks for new applied geophysics algorithms and workflows.”
