Shallow depth geophysical data from archaeological sites contain various levels and types of noise that hinters the valuable information of the subsurface architectural relics. Wavelet transform techniques were tested as a method for decomposition of the original geophysical data in order to eliminate the noise levels inherent to the geophysical measurements. In addition to the above, unsupervi...

[1] Rock physics attempts to relate the geophysical response of a rock to geologic properties of interest, such as porosity, lithology, and fluid content. The geophysical properties estimated by field-scale surveys, however, are impacted by additional factors, such as complex averaging of heterogeneity at the scale of the survey and artifacts introduced through data inversion, that are not addr...

A former radioactive waste disposal site is surveyed with two non-intrusive geophysical techniques, including magnetic gradiometry and electromagnetic induction. Data were gathered over the site by towing the geophysical equipment mounted to a non-electrically conductive and non-magnetic fibre-glass cart. Magnetic gradiometry, which detects the location of ferromagnetic material, including iron...

In the last decade several techniques have been developed to enhance geophysical data in order to extract subtle features that reflect the structural geology of the area. These techniques include curvelet, ridglet and wavelet analysis. Although these techniques provide a powerful tool in extracting linear features from geophysical data, they lack the power to resolve curvilinear or circular fea...

A stochastic Bayesian approach for combining well logs and geophysical surveys for enhancing subsurface characterization is presented. The main challenge we face is in creating the bridge to link between ambiguously related geophysical surveys and well data. The second challenge is imposed by the disparity between the scale of the geophysical survey and the scale of the well logs. Our approach ...

Busstop, a spatio-temporal GIS prototype for geophysical studies, is presented. It includes a metadata representation system, a visualisation subsystem, and a spatio-temporal extension of a classical map algebra. It also takes an active approach to integration with existing non-GIS data handling and analysis programs. Busstop has been used for minor geophysical case studies with some success, b...

This work presents the application of a geostatistical-based modeling approach for building up electrical properties acquired from a geophysical electrical tomography survey deployed for the purpose of porphyry Cu exploration at the Takht-e-Gonbad deposit, in the central domain of Iran. Electrical data were inverted in 2D along several profiles across the main favorable zones of Cu-bearing mine...
