Product Introduction

GD-10 is developed based on the latest digital and analog circuitry technique, making it the world leading multi-functional direct current (DC) method instrument. This equipment can be adopted in self-potential (SP), apparent resistivity and induced polarization (IP) surveys. Not only GD-10 supports regular ERT survey configurations, subsurface profiling using both 2D and 3D survey arrays are also supported. GD-10 is powerful in conventional surface ERT surveys, borehole testing, mining tunnels, marine and submarine surveys. Online monitoring mode is readily available for GD-10 to initiate remote automated survey and realize long-term unmanned field monitoring.

As for high-powered IP survey, the transmission module of GD-10 can be connected to external DC power supply up to 1200V (peak-to-peak 2400V) and output current up to 6A. GD-10 is highly compatible with independent external transmitter and implemented in extremely high-powered IP survey (>7200W). The unique IP profiling functionality is similar to ERT method, in which the cross-section profiling can be performed through multi-channel acquisition within single electrodes layout, thus enhancing the overall field survey efficiency.

In ERT survey, electrode placement impacts the overall survey efficiency. Field survey performance highly relies on the volume and weight of the cabling system, layout efficiency, module reliability and the robustness to adapt to environment and client demand. Geomative integrated the advantages of both conventional centralized cabling system and distributed cabling system, incorporating the low-cost and high reliability of the former with the high efficiency and infinitely extensible cable sections of the latter system. A distributed-centralized compacted cabling technique is hence developed, the Geomative. Each cable section is either 5 or 10 takeouts and is controlled through a centralized exchange control at the either end of the cabling heads, while the communication between the cabling heads and the measurement host adopted a distributed controlling approach. Not only long 2D cross-section profiling survey can be performed, 3D cross-section profiling is also feasible using this system which can be laid out simply, robust, and of high reliability.

GD-10 adopted modularized design and fully upgradable scheme, lowering the hardware maintenance and replacement cost. When clients intend to upgrade the purchased instrument, clients will only need to purchase corresponding license authorization and modules. Subsequent upgrades can be performed online through Geomative Studio directly and pre-purchased hardware resources are fully utilized. Furthermore, Geomative Studio software facilitates GD-10 geo-electrical measurement system to realize two major features:

Engineering management mode enables client to manage complicated task particulars and measurement data from field surveys.

Array configuration management function saves client the field operation time and enhance survey efficiency.

- Energy resources exploration - Seawater intrusion detection and dam inspection- Metal and non-metal mining resources prospecting - Borehole/Cross-borehole investigation- Groundwater resources exploration - Geological mapping- Underground contamination variation detection - Cavity exploration- Archeological studies - Well electrical resistivity testing- Real-time monitoring of landslides - Crosshole ERT- Sediment detection of river, lake and reservoir - Bedrock detection for pile foundation- Urban engineering exploration - Marine and submarine survey

Product function

1D Resistivity or IP

In 1D VES survey, transmission up to full power 7200W (1200V*6A) can be emitted to allow excited pulse signals to reach deeper strata. For small signals, up to 255 stacking amounts are allowed to enhance measurement accuracy. Prior to field testing, measurement array configurations and the electrode scanning parameters can be inputted into the monitoring host, thus reducing the time spent in field to enter the survey parameters and increase survey productivity.

Electrode connection: electrodes A, B, M and N are respectively connected to terminals A, B (∞), M and N of the mainframe.

In this measuring device, the measuring point O is the symmetric center of electrodes. MO=ON and AO=OB. After the current measuring point is measured, the four electrodes move simultaneously along the X-axis with certain distances among them, so that the measuring point O moves to the next measuring point along the X-axis. Since the set origin of coordinates is a fixed point on the X-axis (generally the midpoint of the first MN), the device is mainly used to research the lateral variation of resistivity.

As shown in the above figure, the electrode arrangement of composite profiling is the same as that of composite electrical sounding. The same measuring point will produce two sets of measurement data: R0_a andR0_b. After the current measuring point is measured, electrodes A, M, N and B will move along the X-axis with certain distances among them to the next measuring point, so as to obtain the lateral variation of resistivity.

Dipole device: The device is characterized in that current electrodes AB and measuring electrodes MN are dipoles, and there are certain distances among them. Since the four electrodes are on the same straight line, they are called axial dipoles. It is a combination of moving source profiling and sounding methods. Therefore, it’s applicable to research of resistivity variation at different depths along the profile.

Electrodes A, B, M and N are respectively connected to terminals A, B (∞), M and N of the mainframe.

Take a fixed point on the measuring point as the origin O. The distance between current dipoles AB and receiving dipoles MN is a. Profiling measurement is realized by keeping the relative positions of AB and MN unchanged and making A, B, M and M move simultaneously along the X-axis; sounding measurement is realized by moving AB (generally the displacement distance is a) and moving MN in new positions.

The pole-dipole array, unlike other conventional arrangements, is an asymmetrical arrangement. The apparent resistivity anomalies obtained with this arrangement are also asymmetrical. In some places, the asymmetry of the apparent resistivity anomalies obtained will affect the inversion results. One way to eliminate this asymmetry effect is to use a reverse arrangement (Figure c) to repeat the measurements. By combining the positive and negative (Figures a and c) measurements, any impact of asymmetry on the model results will be eliminated with a pole-dipole arrangement.

When the factor n is too large, the signal-to-noise ratio of the measured data may be too small. In order to increase the signal strength, the distance between the two measuring electrodes M and N (Figure b) can be increased.

The pole-dipole array supports cross-diagonal measurement and Γ measurement, and this arrangement is particularly suitable for automatic data acquisition of multi-channel instruments.

High-powered IP Mid-gradient Profiling

Geomative is the first in the industry to adopt ERT modules in the high-powered IP mid-gradient cross-sectional profiling. Similar to the ERT method, clients can deploy a pair of AB electrodes and multiple sets of non-polarizable electrodes. AB transmitting electrode is connected to the AB terminal port on the monitoring host, while the non-polarizable electrodes are connected to the ERT cables takeouts. During IP survey, the host instrument emits electrical signal simultaneously and sequentially select MN electrodes in automated mode. Under sufficient amount of cabling and electrodes, the whole lateral cross-sectional profiling can be accomplished in one run, with a significant enhancement in survey efficiency. If signal emission is performed using external transmitter, clients can simply connect the AB terminal port of GD-10 host to the emission circuit in series. GD-10 will automatically monitor and detect the transmitted electrical signals, triggering and synchronizing the MN acquisition channels simultaneously.

Ground resistance test is mainly used to check the contact conditions between the electrode and the cable and between the electrode and the geotechnical body. It is an important functional step for environmental inspection before testing data.

VES ground resistance is divided into MN and AB ground resistances. The MN ground resistance can be directly measured after the environment is prepared, while AB ground resistance should be measured by connecting the AB line to CH1-M and CH1-N binding posts.

2D and 3D ground resistance test methods are the same. The connection mode of single resistivity only needs to measure P1 ground resistance, while P2 ground resistance needs to be tested for double resistivity, and single IP double IP P1.

It has solved the problem of long-section measurement.

1) The finite cable completes the long section measurement;

2) Long section measurement is completed in section;

3) Non-repeated point measurement gives a high efficiency.

The mainframe is placed in the middle of the measuring line. The rolling method uses the left and right interfaces of the conversion box at the same time. Place the mainframe in the middle of the measuring lines, connect the cable to be rolled to the end of the last section measuring lines after section measurement is completed, and conduct the measurement without moving the position of the mainframe. After the rolling measurement is completed, the long-section data is automatically synthesized. Take the tap system as an example, two high density cables at most can be moved at a time.

Place the mainframe on one side of the measuring line. The rolling method as shown is method to use only one high density cable interface of the mainframe. When measuring, place the mainframe on one side of the measuring lines, connect the cable to be rolled to end of the last measuring lines after the section measurement is completed, and conduct the measurement by moving the mainframe forward to connect to one side of the section, and so on, until the rolling measurement of the whole long section is completed. After the rolling measurement is completed, the long-section data is automatically synthesized. Take the tap system as an example, two high density cables at most can be moved at a time.

When creating a test task, the default rolling function is “No” which refers not to turn on. If a rolling test is required, one or two measuring lines can be selected to roll when creating a test task.

If the rolling function is selected when creating a test task, a rolling surface can be added on the test data page. Determine whether to scroll one or two measuring lines at a time based on the previous settings. The rolling surface can be set before or after testing the current section.

Automatic iteration

4 of 4

If resistivity and IP testing are affected by environmental interference or grounding conditions, resulting in poor test data, we will perform single point multi-iteration measurements and synthesize the results of multiple measurements.

On the Geomative Studio software, when a creating script, the number of iterations could be set for the data points, ranging from 1 to 255. When a script is established and set, download the script to the mainframe.

When creating a test task on the mainframe, the measurement is performed by default by the number of iterations set in the Geomative Studio script creation. The number of iterations can be reset. As shown in the figure, the number of iterations is 5, and then all points of the test task will take iteration test for 5 times.

When resistivity test is seriously affected by interference signal, resulting in poor data quality, the mainframe will automatically evaluate the tested data and make the following adjustment and optimization:
1) Broadens the emission period. The default measurement period of 0.8s can be broadened to 1.6s or 3.2S.
2) Conducts iteration test automatically until the data quality meets the conditions. The default iteration is up to 10 times.
3) As shown in the figure, the maximum number of automatic iterations could be set in the device environment variable management interface. The number “0” means to turn off automatic iteration.

Product features

Automated stacking for data quality enhancement

During the data measurement process, GD-10 automatically analyzes signal strength and data quality to determine whether long measurement period and stacking mode should be activated. For sites with strong signal and good data quality, measurement system continuously sweep and scans in high efficiency mode until bad data quality is detected, in which long measurement period or stacking mode would be elaborated to enhance data quality to the maximum extent. Clients can also set stacking amount according to any survey points, survey layers or individual tasks.

Unique sectional centralized mode of GD-10 measurement system

GD-10 series is designed with unique sectional centralized survey layout mode. This technique fully integrated the advantages of both conventional centralized cabling system and distributed cabling system, incorporating the advantages of simple cabling placement and long profiling survey from distributed system, and the simple, reliable and low-cost characteristic from centralized cabling system.

Multidimensional data display, Discover and deal with all issues on-the-spot, instant positioning

Monitoring host instrument provides extremely rich software functionality, to assist clients in handling issues and adjusting settings under different field applications. This allows the data recording of various ambient data and survey procedures in a fashion as real, complete, objective as possible. Detailed functionalities are as follow:

Scatter plot illustrates the R0 oscillation degree of each layers to directly determine data quality
Voltage-current plot of each survey points can be examined. Attenuation curves are shown for IP surveys and evaluate data quality through the curves.
R0 profiles is shown and markers can be manually edited for easy observation.
Main interface displays I, V, R0, η, M, the electrode locations of A, B, M and N. The bottom greyed interface shows the grayscale bar of V, I, R0, standard deviation at any specific survey locations. Total survey points, remaining survey points and estimated time remaining are also displayed during data acquisition.

Rich array database and customized array scripts

Different geophysical exploration may encounter vast difference in their survey objective, environment, approach, response signal and so on. Survey methods should hence be robust and flexible enough to tackle all possible scenarios. Based on programmable and customizable survey concept, Geomative introduced survey scripting method, enabling clients to plan detailed survey configurations, electrode location and stacking amount, prior to their field surveys.

After array configuration is selected, Geomative Studio automatically generates survey script according to array required electrode location relationship. Clients can preset filter conditions to pinpoint the targeted region. Monitoring host skips trivial survey points during field survey and only measures data points within the targeted region, which would effectively shorten the overall measurement duration efficiently.

Stacking amount can be defined in the scripts by survey points or layers. Measurement can be conducted faster for stronger signals at shallow layers without any data stackings. As for deeper layers with weaker signals, data stacking amount is required to enhance survey accuracy. Survey point measurement sequence adjustment to increase the survey interval between neighboring survey points can reduce the noise interferences between the neighboring points. If customized survey configuration is required, the array relationship of electrode locations can be fully defined by clients by using Microsoft® Excel to edit survey point configuration and perform customized measurements.

Support self-defined scripts and script cropping
Support three types of array survey method, including survey by layer, roll-along survey, survey by interval skipping.
Comprehensive standard array database, including Wenner, Schlumberger, Wenner-Schlumberger, Pole-Pole, Pole-Dipole, Dipole-Dipole, Crosshole Dipole-Dipole, Bipole-dipole arrays and so forth.
