An algorithm for local evaluation of weak anisotropy parameters from measurements of slowness vector components and/or of particle motions of qP waves at individual receivers in a borehole in a multi-azimuthal multiple-source offset VSP experiment is proposed. As a byproduct the algorithm yields approximate angular variation of qP wave phase velocity.
