Ground Conductivity (EM)
A ground conductivity or electromagnetic (EM) survey involves the generation of an EM field at the surface and subsequent measuring of the response as it propagates through the subsurface. The main components of the instrument are a transmitter coil (to … Read More

MASW (Surface Wave Surveys)
Multi-channel Analysis of Surface Waves (MASW) is a very useful method for investigating shallow geological structure and, in particular, the relative shear strength of subsurface materials. By incorporating density values for the local bedrock and overburden sediments it is possible … Read More

Shallow Geophysics for Transmission Cable Route Characterisation
Shallow geophysics plays a crucial role in characterizing the subsurface for transmission cable routes, offering significant advantages to transmission teams working on energy infrastructure projects. By employing non-invasive geophysical techniques, energy providers can optimize cable route planning, reduce environmental impact, … Read More

River Crossings: Profiling Geology using Geophysics
Many of our clients constructing roads, laying pipelines or investigating historic bridges find profiling the geology beneath rivers tricky using conventional ground investigation methods. Since the path rivers take is often dictated by changes in geology, the problem can be … Read More

Characterisation of Landfill Sites using Geophysics
Addressing the growing challenge of environmentally compliant landfill management, TerraDat provides expert geophysical survey services for both active and closed landfill sites. Our advanced, non-invasive techniques deliver high-resolution insights into landfill composition and boundaries, surpassing traditional methods in efficiency and … Read More

Mapping Shallow Abandoned Mineworkings using Geophysics
The problem of mapping shallow abandoned mine workings is significant in the re-development of brownfield sites or land reclamation in former mining areas. A TerraDat Geophysics survey can mitigate the risks of mapping mine workings using conventional ground investigation methods. … Read More

Magnetics
The magnetic survey technique is based on mapping localised variations in the Earth’s magnetic field caused by sub-surface magnetic materials, which range from naturally occurring magnetic minerals to man-made ferrous objects. This leads to a wide range of applications, from … Read More
