We need a 4chan journal of science.

Basically what happened is that I got scammed into fixing a microseismology company's product for them. The good thing is that they forgot to make me sign any noncompetes or NDAs during the process, so now I have inside knowledge of how to replicate their product from scratch, in addition to all of the improvements of my own.

The idea is to use a network of smartphones as makeshift seismometers to create extremely high resolution subsurface resource maps using passive travel time and attenuation tomography. We would create a sort of geophysical analytics library that app developers could include in their projects and get paid for as an alternative to showing users advertisements. That way we could build out a sensor network with unrivalled coverage and density with a flip of a switch since there's so many people with smartphones out there now. Of course that's going to result in a massive deluge of data, but luckily I have a really efficient and robust source localization algorithm that can let us scale to those levels. I'm an applied math guy though, so what I really need is someone with more knowledge of the geology for building up an accurate velocity model.

tl;dr: I want to make an app to discover every mineral resource in north america
