Workshop: Fundamentals of electrical resistivity data processing

May 26th, 10:00am – 2:00pm EDT

This workshop will look at workflows for processing electrical resistivity data, whether it is 1D vertical electrical soundings (VES) or 2D and 3D electrical resistivity tomography (ERT) data. IT will start by looking at QA (quality assurance) of raw data and how to can gauge what is worth keeping and what should be left out of further processing. This will lead onto the demonstration and actual processing / inversion of a number of example datasets, discussing the theory behind the steps undertaken which will include topographic corrections, inversion settings such as damping and choosing smooth or blocky/robust inversion, constraining models based on a priori knowledge, and refining models after initial attempts to improve the end result.
The final part of the workshop will be how the data can be visualized and presented to deliver information to clients and potentially non-technical audiences. The mains software packages used in this workshop will be AGS SPIA DC and AGS Workbench plus Geotomo Res2dInv/Res3dInv.

Who is this for: Beginners and more experienced resistivity practitioners with limited back-office experience who want to improve their processing and inversion skills.

Level: Beginners/Intermediate/Advanced

Where: All courses offered virtually! Link will be provided via email upon payment
