A procedure for the velocity filtering of two-dimensional geophysical data is discussed. This procedure involves repeatedly applying multichannel filters to a small number of overlapping subarrays of the input data. The multichannel filters can be chosen so that the resulting velocity filter is capable of suppressing multiple interferences traveling at different velocities. The two-dimensional frequency-wavenumber expression of the velocity filter is derived. With this expression, it becomes possible to implement the filter using two-dimensional fast Fourier transform (FFT) techniques. Two examples which illustrate the performance of the derived filters are presented.
