Aerial geophysical methods are used to determine the physical properties of underground structures using platforms such as airplanes, helicopters or unmanned aerial vehicles (drones). Thanks to the rapid and effective scanning of large areas, differences such as underground layers, discontinuities, lateral changes and tectonic lines are detected.
The methods to be used are determined in accordance with the objectives of the research.
- High-resolution data collected from the air allows detailed mapping of subsurface layers’ thickness, structural changes, discontinuities and other geological elements.
- Airborne geophysical surveys allow us to understand the physical properties of the subsurface and use these resources efficiently in a wide range of applications, from mineral exploration to geothermal energy projects, from natural resource exploration to geological mapping.
