Various implementations described herein are directed to a method of performing a land seismic survey operation. The method may include receiving a first information from a central recording system by a computer system on a seismic truck. The first information describes time and locations of seismic shots being performed in the seismic survey operation. The method may include using a set of rules and the first information to determine a start time for a seismic shot at a next shot location. The method may also include transmitting a second information that describes the next shot location and the start time to the central recording system.
