Applications
- Exploration of the layer structure, that means layer boundaries in sediments and solids
- Structure detection in sediments and rocks (stratification disturbances, weathering zones, fault structures)
- Soil examinations (separation of soil and/or geomechanical relevant complexes)
- Exploration of geogen and/or anthropogen caused anomaly areas (cavities because of former mining and/or subrosion, building fragments, archaeological objects)
- Investigation hydrogeological circumstances (differentiate aquifers, hydraulic relations)
- Investigation of sediments
Example
