Claim:
1. A method of maintaining time domain data in a collaborative petro-technical application environment, the method comprising: receiving seismic data representing a subterranean formation and collected using one or more seismic receivers; storing first data based on the seismic data in a first local project, the first data referencing a first seismic reference datum (SRD) in the first local project from which travel time is calculated in the first data; storing second data based on the seismic data in a second local project, the second data referencing a second SRD in the second local project from which travel time is calculated in the second data, the first and second SRDs being at different depths; maintaining a shared project in a petro-technical collaboration application; transferring the first data from the first local project to the shared project, wherein the first data is tagged as referencing the first SRD in the shared project; transferring the second data from the second local project to the shared project, wherein the second data is tagged as referencing the second SRD in the shared project; and transferring the first data from the shared project into the second local project, wherein transferring the first data from the shared project into the second local project comprises determining, using a processor, that the first data references a different SRD from the second SRD in the second local project and in response to determining that the first data references the different SRD converting, using the processor, the first data such that the first data references the second SRD.
