The average-velocity method is the most commonly-used time-to-depth conversion technology for the seismic survey of coalbed. But for the steeply-inclined coalbed, the average velocity changes rapidly laterally, and the interpretation accuracy varies greatly, so that the intelligent coal mining could not be assured effectively. Herein, the accuracy of various average-velocity-interpolation methods was discussed by analyzing a steeply-inclined coalbed model and a practical 3D seismic mining area and appropriate improvement methods were proposed accordingly. The calculation results of a forward model show that the bottom elevation accuracy of coalbed is greatly affected by the locations of interpolation points in the case …
