Well, it’s not every day that we get to use a headline like that—but it’s true! Last year in China, a customer of ours—China Geological Survey (CGS)—worked with The University of Electronic Science and Technology, and Laurel Technologies for an extraordinary project. The joint research team was tasked to conduct an underwater and shoreline geophysical exploration of the Shen Yin site in Jiangkou after a few artifacts were discovered by locals near the shores of a river. These findings quickly grew into a high-profile...

Resistivity surveys come in a few flavors—one-dimensional (1D), two-dimensional (2D), three-dimension (3D), and technically even four-dimensional (4D), though we’ll save 4D for a future post. Let’s focus on 1D, 2D, and 3D for now. If you’re new to the world of Electrical Resistivity, it can be difficult to understand what’s the best type of survey for your needs. In this post, we’ll cover how these three types compare—and the type of survey that we think is the best of the bunch—3D surveys.

First, let’s break down how these different surveys stack up...

Odds are you’ve probably seen a sinkhole before. If not in person, then on the news—as they tend to make for pretty sensational stories. It’s an exciting, albeit dangerous, natural geological phenomena that happens a lot. The aftermath is hard to miss once it occurs, but there are ways to spot a sinkhole beforehand. In this article, we’re helping you spot the 7 most common signs of sinkholes before they occur. Use these indicators when scoping out the safety of your property—it could help save a lot of risk and money!

We’ve covered a lot so far in our groundwater educational series (But really, we’re just getting started!). Today, we want to take a closer look at The United States’ use of groundwater. Check out the infographic below to see a few ways we use groundwater in the U.S.

All data used in the infographic was sourced from The National Groundwater Association
