Abstract Schemes for seismic mapping of reflectors in the presence of an arbitrary velocity model, dipping and curved reflectors, diffractions, ghosts, surface elevation variations, and multiple reflections are reviewed and reduced to a single formula involving up and downgoing waves. The mapping formula may be implemented without undue complexity by means of difference approximations to the relativistic Schroedinger equation.
