GIM-1 Single-channel Intelligent Resistivity & IP Meter: Redefining the Frontiers of High-Density Electrical Surveying

Technological Paradigm Shift: From DC Electrical Sounding to 4D Resistivity Imaging

Evolution of Electrical Surveying Methods

DC Electrical Soundinghttps://geotechcn.net/service/high-density-electrical-method-20250307/, as the cornerstone of traditional geophysical exploration, estimates subsurface resistivity distribution by measuring surface potential differences. Its limitations include low single-point data acquisition efficiency (<500 points/day), restricted exploration depth (<300m), and difficulty in constructing continuous geological models.

The revolutionary High-Density Electrical Method integrates intelligent electrode arrays with multi-channel synchronous acquisition technology to achieve:

• 2D/3D Electrical Resistivity Imaging
• Electrical Resistivity Tomography (ERT)
• 4D Time-Lapse Monitoring
