In order to solve the problems of storage and transformation of large number of seismic data,a modified SPIHT seismic data compression algorithm was proposed.By compressing and reconstructing seismic data image effectively,the algorithm could be used to get a higher compression ratio and better image restoration results while reducing the encoding and decoding time.In order to verify the effectiveness of the algorithm,ten seismic profiles were chosen for experiment.Results of experiment show that this algorithm can reserve the quality of image and improve the efficiency of encoding and decoding.
