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
Experienced Ground Radar (GPR) Company
TerraDat has been a GPR survey company since the technique evolved to a level where it could be applied to a wide range of applications over 20 years ago. Because the GPR method involves analysis of wave-form data, our experience … 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
Electrical Resistivity Tomography (ERT)
The Resistivity technique is useful for characterising the sub-surface materials in terms of their electrical properties. Variations in electrical resistivity (or conductivity) typically correlate with variations in lithology, water saturation, fluid conductivity, porosity and permeability, which may be used to … Read More
Slope Stability: Understanding Slope Stability using Geophysics
TerraDat has developed a strategy for investigating slope stability that provides key engineering properties for managing and monitoring existing and potential landslides. While each site is considered unique with respect to the survey design, the methods that most often prove … 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
How can geophysical techniques be used to investigate and monitor leaking dams?
Dams are vital structures that contribute to vital infrastructure including drinking water, crop irrigation, and hydroelectric power. These structures, often over a century old are also put under huge stress by the large quantities of water they retain as well … Read More
Archaeological Geophysics (Archeology)
CHECK OUT OUR NEW DEDICATED ARCHAEOLOGICAL GEOPHYSICS WEBSITE TerraDat’s archaeological geophysics team is uniquely placed to draw on decades of experience in applied geophysics and archaeological surveying. TerraDat’s approach uses our fully-trained geophysicists to deal with the geophysics while our … 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
