The Geode seismic modules house from 3 to 24 channels each, weigh only 8 lbs.(3.6 kg) and interconnect using inexpensive digital network cable. The Geode will run all day on a small 12v battery and sleeps when not in use.

Geode architecture and Geometrics software lets you build seismic recording systems from 3 to 1000 channels with multiple lines and built-in roll capability. The low power Geodes even have an on-board hardware correlator that can be used for swept sources and MiniSosie (psuedo-random) surveys and compress data before transmission.

For light-duty applications, you can run the Geode from your laptop to view, record, and process your data. The software interfaces to the Geode as a simple high-speed network device, eliminating the need for special drivers and cards. For more demanding applications where ruggedness and reliability are key, use the Geode in combination with Geometrics’ StrataVisor NZ series seismographs.

Place a Geode module out on the line close to the geophones or well head and eliminate long, expensive analog cables. Never hassle with poor connections and bad roll box contacts when doing a reflection survey. And when you are not using the Geode for exploring, use it for monitoring earthquakes, quarry blasts or vibration from heavy equipment.

And because getting the answer is key, Geometrics bundles the Geode with a suite of no-charge industry-standard professional software that expands you capabilities for commercial or research applications.

Features:

• Versatile Seismic Recorder: Petroleum exploration and monitoring, engineering studies, depth to bedrock, fault and fracture location, hydrologic investigations, research and teaching.

• Refraction: Comes with built-in first break picking and analysis
• Marine Surveys: Very fast time between shots, real-time single-trace gathers, gun monitoring, noise snapshots, tape swapping for 24/7 operation.
• Sub-bottom Profiling: Works with boomers, sparkers, bubble-pulse sources or air guns
• 4-D Time Lapse Surveys: Weather-proof Geodes can be left in place or redeployed easily for accurate repeat surveys
• Earthquake Monitoring: Uses STA/LTA type algorithm to trigger on incoming data stream, synchronizes with GPS clock
• Continuous Recording: Continuous mode plus GPS synchronization for blast and vibration monitoring, general industrial applications.
• Ultra Light-weight: 8 lb., 3.6 kg, modules are easy to carry and deploy.
• 3 Year Warranty: Supported by full time customer service staff with 4 technicians, 4 geophysicists, real-time on-line support available. Expandable: Available with 3 to 24 channels per module; connect more modules to build low cost distributed systems up to 1000 channels.
• Unmatched Specifications: 24 bit, ultra-high resolution 20 kHz bandwidth (8 to 0.02 ms sampling), low distortion (0.0005%), low noise (0.2uV), stacking accuracy (1/32 of sample interval).
• Very Rugged: Passes MIL810E vibration test, survives 1.5m drop onto concrete in 14 orientations, submersible.
• Easy Interface: Connects to any laptop or PC via standard network port or interfaces with Geometrics’ new StrataVisor NZ series seismographs for professional applications in harsh environments. Plug the Geode into your building network and operate it remotely.
• Noiseless Digital Transmission: Data transmitted from Geodes digitally on light, inexpensive cable, eliminating heavy, noise prone analog lines.
• Complete Performance and Line Testing: Built-in test finds bad geophones, cables. Interfaces with Geometrics field portable test oscillator when specifications verfication is required.
• Bundled No-Charge Professional Software Gives Quick Answers:
• Geometrics built-in first break picker and layer assignment tool.

La sonda MPP mide la susceptibilidad magnética (en 10-3 SI) así como los valores de conductividad relativa y absoluta de tipo EM (en MHOS/M) de pequeños y grandes objetos tales que los testigos de perforación, las muestras extraídas en el terreno , los bloques erráticos los afloramientos, los índices metálicos, etc.

Con la sonda MPP, obtendrá la información que necesita para planificar los levantamientos geofísicos apropiados y estará en condición de establecer una correlación entre sus muestras y sus levantamientos EM/MAG.

Caracteristicas

Mejoramiento continúo

Une nueva versión de la interfaz utilizador es ahora disponible. Dos nuevas funciones han sido agregadas: un factor geométrico de corrección y el modo lectura única:

• El último software de la sonda MPP ahora proporciona valores más precisos de conductividad EM sobre muestras de roca. Esta calibración mejorará lecturas de conductividad EM que van de 0,1 a 40 000 000 S/m (mho/m).
• EL factor geométrico de corrección corrige automáticamente los valores de susceptibilidad magnética según el diámetro del testigo o la superficie de la muestra.
• El modo lectura única permite inicializar la sonda, de tomar una sola lectura y de conservar el valor a la pantalla. Este modo permite obtener valores más estables y repetitivos.
• Además, una nueva carta electrónica ha sido desarrollada y es ahora instalada en la sonda MPP con el fin de protegerla contra la utilización de una fuente de alimentación inadecuada.

Compact, easy-to-use and field proof, the Syscal Pro measures both resistivity and chargeability. It is ideal for environmental and civil engineering applications such as depth-to-rock determination, weathered bedrock mapping. With a maximal output voltage of 2000Vpp, the Syscal Pro is very adapted to detect deep fault in fractured aquifers or to characterize the depths and thickness of the groundwater aquifers.

Several options are available with the Syscal Pro such as the Fullwave mode to record complete time series of measured voltages during an acquisition and the Remote mode that allow for controlling automatically the Syscal Pro through a PC for monitoring purposes.

Several additional accessories are also available to use the Syscal Pro to increase the transmitter power to 1200 W, to perform measurements in borehole, to test the 12V batteries, to communicate via wifi or to upload data on a SD card.

The VIP 10000 internal microprocessor is capable of excellent current regulation in almost any load.

Predominantly used as part of mineral exploration studies, the VIP series include three systems with different power specifications. This transmitter is generally used together with V-Fullwavers or Elrec Pro receivers.

To simplify operation, the instrument manages the injection current and voltage automatically. When starting, the VIP automatically operates several safe tests to ensure that the device is not misused.

All VIP systems offer four operating modes;
• Time domain waveform, On Time (Ton) and Off time (Toff),
• Frequency domain waveform, outputting two user-selectable frequencies from 0.0625Hz and 4Hz.
• Dual frequency mode, a base frequency is selected from 0.0625 to 0.5Hz and the high frequency is fixed at 8 times the base frequency.
• Continuous mode, injects a constant DC current into the ground.

The VIP 10000 power makes it suitable for use in almost all geological formations. In situation where a wired synchronization is not possible, the VIP can be operated alongside the I-Fullwaver for accurate absolute time stamps when recording precise full waveform time domain measurements
