The Benefits of a Weak Dollar (UPDATED)
Posted by Sean on Oct 13, 2020
The original article was posted 2/27/2018.
[Update 2/13/2020]
With the Euro trending upwards again, we thought it was time to remind everyone that a weak dollar can get European customers new—American-made—geophysical equipment at a fraction of the cost.

Power vs. Signal: Why more power doesn’t mean better resolution
Posted by Sean on Jun 05, 2020
We know it sounds crazy, but more power output doesn’t mean you’ll have better surveys.
It’s understandable that most of our customers don’t initially believe us when we tell them this. In most industries—especially electronics—more power equals better, right? But ultimately they understand when they see the proof. Today, let us explain why we say that power isn’t the most important spec that you should be looking for when shopping for an Electrical Resistivity meter. Ok, let's get into it.
So what spec is...

Is it ok to remove noisy data?
Posted by Sean on Nov 08, 2019
Here in North America, we're moving into the colder months of the year. And while some of us will brave the elements this season and do some cold-weather surveys, many of us will be indoors looking through the data we collected over the Summer. So it’s a good time to start talking about the kind of work that's done off of the field—like data inversion. In this post, we want to discuss data filtering in particular.
Over the course of our...
