Georgia & Tennessee · Geophysical investigation

Understand more
beneath your land.

Site-specific geophysical surveys help interpret geological conditions and groundwater potential before your next investment in water.

A question-led investigation

Choose methods
that suit the ground.

Geophysics measures physical properties that can help interpret what lies below the surface. Hydro/Geo Explorations combines geological understanding with appropriate field methods to investigate a property’s subsurface conditions.

Depending on site geology, access, and the question being asked, an investigation may use electrical resistivity imaging, electromagnetic conductivity, magnetic surveys, or magnetotelluric methods. The proposed scope will identify suitable methods for your project.

A clear process

Define. Investigate.
Interpret.

We agree on the question, scope, methods, pricing, and deliverables before fieldwork. Site access and available geological or well records help plan the investigation.

Review the setting.

Discuss property location, project goals, existing well records, site access, and the relevant geological setting.

Collect useful data.

Use the methods agreed for the site to investigate physical contrasts that may inform interpretation of subsurface conditions.

Discuss the findings.

Review what the investigation suggests, its limitations, and appropriate next steps with your drilling or project plans.

Interpretation supports
better decisions.

Survey findings are interpretations, not a direct guarantee of groundwater. Different geological conditions can produce similar responses.

An investigation cannot guarantee water, yield, drilling depth, or water quality. Drilling and appropriate testing confirm the conditions and performance of a well.
