Abstract
One of the most widespread problems in seismology is the necessity to adjust some a priori given medium structure. As a rule, such a priori information is vertically inhomogeneous component of wave propagation velocity. Such theoretical aspects of the problem as its uniqueness estimates of conditional stability are studied rather well. There are also a variety of algorithms for its numerical solution. Therefore, in this paper the main attention is paid to numerical analysis of resolving ability and information contents of linearized inversion of multi-offset data.
