1. A method for configuring land survey sensors, comprising:
- receiving one or more planned positions of the sensors;
determining one or more actual positions of the sensors;
sending the actual positions to radio-frequency identification (RFID) transceivers of the sensors receiving one or more serial numbers of the sensors from the RFID transceivers of the sensors forwarding the one or more serial numbers to a data center using the handheld device; and
forwarding the actual positions to the data center.

Abstract
Described herein are implementations of various technologies for a method for in-field configuration of land survey sensors. One or more planned positions of the sensors may be received. One or more actual positions of the sensors may be determined. The actual positions may be sent to the sensors while the sensors are powered off.

9. A land acquisition system, comprising:
-
a plurality of sensors disposed in a survey area; a handheld device for configuring the sensors comprising; a processor; and a memory having program instructions configured to cause the processor to; receive one or more planned positions of the sensors; determine one or more actual positions of the sensors; send the actual positions to radio-frequency identification (RFID) transceivers of the sensors while the sensors are powered off; receive one or more serial numbers of the sensors from the RFID transceivers of the sensors; forward the one or more serial numbers to a data center; and send the actual positions to the data center. - View Dependent Claims (10, 11, 12, 13, 14, 15)

16. A method for processing seismic data, comprising:
-
receiving, at a data center, a first set of serial numbers of sensors from a handheld device, wherein the first set of serial numbers was received from radio-frequency identification (RFID) transceivers of the sensors while the sensors were powered off; receiving, at the data center, a second set of serial numbers of the sensors from the sensors; comparing the first set of serial numbers with the second set of serial numbers; determining, using a microprocessor, whether seismic data has been received from the sensors in a seismic survey area based on the comparison; receiving actual positions of the sensors; and processing the seismic data based on the actual positions if it is determined that the seismic data has been received from the sensors based on the comparison. - View Dependent Claims (17, 18, 19)
