SYSTEMS AND METHODS FOR SEISMIC EXPLORATION IN DIFFICULT OR CONSTRAINED AREAS

A method for performing a seismic survey using at least one carrier which includes a seismic source. The method includes: deploying each of the at least one carriers by the delivery vehicle, wherein each of the at least one carriers includes: a plurality of supports configured to enable a baseplate to contact ground, wherein the baseplate is formed by each foot of the plurality of supports; a seismic source which includes a lower portion configured to push through unconsolidated materials and configured to contact the ground; and a power source configured to operate the seismic source; and transmitting at least one seismic signal from the seismic source.
