S-Cube delivers its breakthrough waveform inversion through the XWITM toolbox which now integrates the AWI and RWI objective functions. This latest result on the SEG14 blind test dataset demonstrates why this combination is theoretically and practically potentially the most accurate and efficient algorithm in existence to determine the final velocity model deep below the diving wave limit from a highly inaccurate starting model.
