UXO survey suite

Need a UXO survey?

+
Need a UXO survey prior to works?

The PLA can acquire a suite of surveys to provide a comprehensive UXO survey package, for example:

  • Gradiometer survey
  • Sidescan survey
  • MBES survey
  • GeoChirp 3D survey

Benefits:

  • Reduced risk of unexpected UXO
  • Reduced risk of delays
  • Valuable data set that can be leveraged for other uses

Deliverables:

  • Listing of Potential Contacts,  XYZ
  • Target Characterisation Sheets
  • Geotiff of GeoChirp 3D Coverage
  • Survey report

Need to detect ferrous objects?

The PLA can acquire gradiometer surveys.

Benefits:

  • Identification of ferrous objects, which could affect future works
  • Georeferenced
  • Data can be cross correlated with other surveys

Deliverables:

  • Report
  • Gradiometer geotiff
  • Excel list of ferrous anomalies

Need to detect surface objects?

The PLA can acquire sidescan surveys

Benefits:

  • Detects objects not readily imaged by other means

Deliverables:

  • Report
  • Sidescan geotiff
  • Excel list of surface contacts
sidescan survey
+
Backscatter surveys

The PLA can acquire backscatter surveys.

Benefits:

  • Data georeferenced, so it can be integrated with MBES data
  • Can be acquired during a MBES survey
  • Can be used to model surface composition, eliminating or reducing the need for grab samples

Deliverables:

  • Report
  • Sidescan geotiff
  • Excel list of surface contacts

+
GeoChirp 3D surveys

Need high resolution image of the sub-surface (<10m)?

The PLA can acquire a 3D CHIRP Survey.

Benefits:

  • A subsurface image  with 12.5 (or 25cm) horizontal resolution
  • The acquisition of GeoChirp 3D data will open opens up for extraction of geophysical properties, object detections

Deliverables:

  • Report
  • Geotiff of GeoChirp 3D Coverage
  • Processed 3D SEG-Y files (NMO and migrated)

+
Subsurface object detection

Need to detect objects in the subsurface?

The PLA can process the GeoChirp 3D data to characterise subsurface objects.

Benefits:

  • Subsurface objects accurately positioned
  • Subsurface objects dimensioned  

Deliverables:

  • Report
  • Listing of Potential Contacts,  XYZ with object dimension
  • Target Characterisation Sheets
