Abstract
Seismic refraction is one of the active seismic methods that work based on seismic waves that are refracted following the layers of the earth beneath the surface. Based on the data acquisition sketch obtained, the acquisition is carried out using the In-Line technique. There are two sources of vibration chosen, namely at the forward and reverse points, the distance between the 5-meter geophone and the distance between the source of the vibration and the geophone of 5 meters. The seismic data processing technique used in this study is the Generalized Reciprocal Method (GRM). This method determines the value of analysis, XY Optimum distance, time-depth analysis value, and depth. In interpreting seismic data, the calculation results that have been made are validated for accuracy using Software. From the research that has been done, it can be known as modeling subsurface structure. There are three layers, the first layer is 6 m-10m deep, while the second layer is 18m-22m deep. In the range of about 0m-20m, the first layer has a velocity of 507.74 m/s, the second layer has a velocity of 1420.43 m/s and the third layer has a velocity of 2522.30 m/s. In the range of about 20m-80m the first layer has a velocity of 550.12 m/s, the second layer has a velocity of 1575.11 m/s and the third layer has a velocity of 2607.45 m/s. In the range of about 80m-100m, the first layer has a velocity of 482.34 m/s, the second layer has a velocity of 1301.09 m/s and the third layer has a velocity of 2400.86 m/s.
