Geophysical Surveys

Application in Geology

• Examination of geological conditions;
• Examination of haphazard geological processes and phenomena e.g. sinkholes, soil slips, floating earth, zones of rock fracture, etc.
• Mapping mineral deposit formations of the near-surface section (peat diggings, construction materials, etc.);
• Locating borders of congealed and non-congealed ettle on maps and cross-sectional views.

Application in Geotechnics

• Examination of artificial surfaces e.g. highways, runways, etc.
• Examination of railway subgrades;
• Examination of buildings and structures;
• Detection of subsurface utilities.

Application in Hydrology and Hydrogeology

• Examination of water areas within the framework of geological and ecological surveying for construction sites of bridges and water-passes (mapping bed profiles and differentiating sediments on the bed or bottom of a body of water);
• Finding thickness of ice;
• Finding level, flow direction and infiltration rates of subsurface waters;
• Detection of suprapermafrost and infrapermafrost waters.

Application in Archeology

• Mapping embedded foundations and walls of ancient settlements;
• Detection of archeological objects.

Application in Geoecology

• Mapping soil oil-pollution;
• Mapping buried parts of landfills for household and technical waists;
• Finding thickness of sediments on the bed or bottom of a body of water;
• Assessing amount of garbage on the bed or bottom of a body of water; detection of sunken objects.
