Earth Resistivity Tomography (ERT)

Multiple earth resistance profile measurements are fused to create 2D sections and 3D profiles of electrical resistivity through the ground, commonly used to determine the depth of known features.

This technique is similar to earth resistance, but uses lines of fixed electrodes to create 2D slices and 3D views of changes in earth resistance at different depths. Typically, this can be used to model the depth and shape of known features, such as buried landforms or extraction pits.

Magnetometry

Measures the ambient magnetic field strength. Effective for detecting features with magnetic contrast from the surrounding soil, including burnt features, pits and ditches.

Aerial Photography and Videography

Aerial views provide unique, breath-taking perspectives, capturing assets, sites and landscapes as images, videos or photospheres. Perfect for reconnaissance surveys, settings assessments or promotional campaigns.
