After migration, the first step to estimating a new interval slowness model is to apply residual NMO+DMO to the constant-offset sections. If the data do not stack best for $\gamma=1$ then moveout is still present over offset which implies velocity errors. I calculated the stack semblance for a range of $\gamma$; $.3 < \gamma < 1.68$ by applying residual NMO+DMO to the migrated constant-offset sections. Figure 8 shows semblance versus residual slowness $\gamma$,for the same four midpoints of Figure 6.
