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
Crosshole Seismics
Seismic methods can provide detailed information about rock properties and geological structure between boreholes. Fewer boreholes are needed to achieve a continuous picture of the subsurface, thereby reducing overall costs and the risk of missing target features. Borehole seismic methods … Read More
Peat Mapping using Geophysics (Peat Surveys)
Mapping peat is a common requirement for proposed developments such as wind farms and pipeline routes where they cross remote and/or sensitive areas. There are several geophysical methods that can provide plan and cross-sectional information to map the distribution of … 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
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
Brownfield Site Investigation using Geophysics
Most former industrial sites have a legacy of buried structural hazards and contamination. Geophysical surveys can detect buried targets without the need to excavate. Many industrial contaminants, such as salinisation by acids and hydrocarbon plumes, can leave a significant geophysical … 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
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
