Dear All N.S.G.G Geophysical Field Exhibition, 13th July, 2010. The latest in the series of geophysical field exhibitions will be held at the Near Surface Geophysics Group, Stoughton Road Test site, Leicester on 13th July. New this year we shall be conducting a field data acquisition master class, which will qualify as a CPD event for those attending and the aim of which is to tutor the attendees in how to acquire the best possible field data for each techniques. Independent experts in field data acquisition will be tutoring each section of the course Two techniques will be covered this year, GPR and magnetic surveying, which are complimentary, are applicable to near surface investigations. Topics covered will include survey design and layout given different field constraints, data sampling regimes to reduce aliasing effects, knowing the errors in the survey, the importance of accurate positioning in the overall error envelope, sensor selection, heights and positioning, noise reduction, in-field QC of your data, the importance of field notes and general good field practice applicable to each technique. Hands on field experience will be given using typical modern instrumentation in each technique. This event is suitable for geophysical practitioners, users of geophysical surveys and those responsible for both specifying and selling a survey as it aims to set out the boundaries of capabilities of both techniques. Best of all attendance is FREE, but we would need confirmation of your attendance to assess catering arrangements.
