Magnetometer/Gradiometer Surveying

Aqua Survey utilizes magnetometry to detect and map ferrous-based objects that are submerged or buried beneath the bottom of a waterbody. Often there is a great deal of background metallic noise due to bridges and other structures that are not targets of interest. These objects can be filtered out by the use of a Gradiometer Magnetometer. Both magnetometers are continuous sensing instruments and can be towed at relatively high survey speeds (~5 knots). A magnetometer is used to sweep a site to sense magnetic anomalies caused by ferrous objects. Data can then be processed to produce maps of targets.
