Main Features

This software provides an advanced environment for processing, modelling and inversion of geophysical data, especially for electrical resistivity, induced polarization and complementary geophysical methods.

Key Functions

• Supports any electrode arrays or combinations, including arbitrary electrode spacings and positions.
• Allows different arrays with different numbers of electrodes to be used on the same site.
• Supports measurements at the water surface and on the water bottom, as well as borehole, cross-borehole and mixed survey systems.
• Four methods for defining topography, with real-time editing.
• Two induced polarization inversion methods:
  • Standard static IP inversion.
  • Full waveform IP inversion for Cole-Cole parameters in the time and frequency domains.
• Approximate and full-solution calculation options.
• Script recording for automatic multi-file processing.
• Working buffer for up to 5 models.
• Resistivity and IP data quality control, including denoising and data editing tools.
• Advanced tools for mathematical modelling of geoelectrical sections:
  • Standard “bitmap-style” mesh.
  • Arbitrary layered models.
  • Polygonal-style models.
• Additional tools for gravity, magnetic and self-potential forward modelling and joint inversion.
• Several resistivity and IP inversion algorithms:
  • Smooth.
  • Focusing.
  • Robust.
