In some examples, the disclosure provides a method for determining a drift in clock data that is provided by a clock of a seismic sensor. The sensor is exposed to an ambient temperature that varies over time. The method includes obtaining temperature data associated with the ambient temperature as a function of time. The method also includes obtaining the clock data. The method also includes obtaining timestamp data provided by a global navigation satellite system. The method also includes determining drift data which minimizes a difference of a temporal drift in the clock data, based on the timestamp data and the temperature data. The method also includes outputting corrective data based on the determined drift data.
