Electromagnetic Training

Electromagnetic profiling

Principles of the electromagnetic method:

  • relation between chargeability & geological formations
  • main electrode arrays for IP measurements

Operation of PROMIS transmitter & receiver:

  • selection of parameters: frequencies, spacings, …
  • quality control, stacking process
  • use of EMSYS software for data display & filtering
  • field measurements on test site: handling of transmitter, receiver, wires, batteries

Interpretation of resistivity & IP sections:

  • examples of applications in various geological contexts
  • analysis of component anomalies
  • use of 1D inversion software for depth interpretation of resistivity soundings

Maintenance of equipment:

  • trouble detection, first level repair of PROMIS equipment, control of batteries
