Mapping<br />

Able to replicate very shallow information from the air<br />

• Shallowest information which can be<br />

derived from A<strong>EM</strong> data is an average<br />

of the conductivity within the top 4 –<br />

10 m<br />

CRC L<strong>EM</strong>E<br />

<strong>EM</strong>31<br />

0 – 4 m<br />

– Easier to get shallow information<br />

if conductivity is high<br />

• Systems optimised to provide shallow<br />

information are those which measure<br />

at high frequency or early delay <strong>time</strong><br />

• Fast turn off and system fidelity<br />
