There is no silver bullet in Airborne Electromagnetics. No single system is capable of resolving every target, and synthetic feasibility studies are required to determine their performance. Being independent form any AEM contractors, and having experience with virtually all of their systems, we can help selecting objectively the most adequate for the particular survey.

We carry out forward modeling using exact formulation, modeling the entire system transfer function, including, e.g., low pass filters, full waveform characterisitcs, noise estimates. Providing model parameter sensitivity analysis based on the Jacobian Matrix, we can identify units that will be poorly resolved, and assess the relevance of adding available prior information to the inversion.

Once the AEM system has been chosen, we can also help defining the survey layout
