A method and system for producing time- and space-averaged displays of seismic signals from a suite of common depth point seismic records. Primary crosscorrelation signals are generated by selectively crosscorrelating the same limited time gate of a plurality of sets of pairs of traces from all the seismic records. The pairs of traces in each of the sets each include energy thereon which travels to and from subsurface reflecting points over corresponding pairs of paths of first and second geometries, respectively. Primary correlation signals for each of the sets are summed to produce a set of output correlation signals which are displayed on a common correlation scale in the order of increasing space lag.
