Geophysical Surveying
Geophysical surveying is a method used to explore the Earth's subsurface by measuring physical properties like gravity, magnetic fields, and electrical conductivity. Techniques such as gravimetry measure gravitational variations to locate underground features, while others assess soil and rock characteristics for environmental studies. This data helps in identifying natural resources, assessing geological hazards, and guiding construction. Essentially, geophysical surveys provide valuable insights about what lies beneath the surface without extensive digging, combining advanced technology with scientific principles to help solve real-world problems.
