The effectiveness of a geophysical method
can be influenced by site conditions. Experience, therefore, is key to getting the most out of a geophysical survey.

Electrical resistivity profile of top of rock and karst conditions
Quantum
Geophysics uses CADD to quickly and easily superimpose geophysical
drawings, for example contour maps and profiles, onto client basemaps so
that the findings can be evaluated with respect to known conditions.
