Zond Software software

ZondHED1D program is designed for one-dimensional data interpretation of AC vertical electric sounding (frequency mode). A method of the vertical electrosounding (VES) is one of the oldest methods of electric prospecting. The first applications of method were in 20th years of XX century. Comparative simplicity and evidence of VES resulted in its wide distribution and development in the whole world. Nowadays vertical electric sounding remains one of the most applied electromagnetic methods. Other modern technologies are developed on the basis of VES – for example, electrical tomography, based on the same principles that for «classic» electric soundings.

ZondMT1d software is designed for one-dimensional interpretation of   magnetotelluric (MT)  data in  MT,  AudioМТ and RadioMT  frequencies ranges and also for soundings  with controlled source. This group of electroprospecting methods is based on studying of the natural variable electromagnetic field, allows to study distribution of the Earth conductivity on depths from the first meters to many tens and hundreds kilometers. Investigating of distribution of resistivity with depth possible due to the phenomenon of skin-effect which defines the depth of electromagnetic field penetration vs frequency. Thus, MT curves reflect change of resistivity vs depth.

ZondMT2d software is designed for two-dimensional interpretation of   magnetotelluric (MT)  data in  MT,  AudioМТ and RadioMT  frequencies range. This group of electroprospecting methods is based on studying of the natural variable electromagnetic field, allows to study distribution of the Earth conductivity on depths from the first meters to many tens and hundreds kilometers. Investigating of distribution of resistivity with depth possible due to the phenomenon of skin-effect which defines the depth of electromagnetic field penetration vs frequency. Thus, MT curves reflect change of resistivity vs depth.

ZondTEM1D software is designed for one-dimensional  multi-stations interpretation  of   Transient ElectroMagnetic(TEM) sounding for various obseravation systems [Line/Loop, Loop/Loop, Loop/Line, Line/Line ). Comfortable interface and wide possibilities of data presentation allow to solve given geological problem with maximum effectiveness. While developing software special attention was payed to comfort and simplicity of its use, variety of visualization features and account of a priori data.

ZondVMD1D software is designed for one-dimensional  interpretation of  frequency-spacing soundings data with a vertical magnetic dipole (a range of frequencies 0.1-500 kHz, Hz, Hz/Hr). Method of electromagnetic sounding (EMS)  is used primarily  for  investigation of areas with  adverse for application of DC electroprospecting methods, in particular, for long-term frozen areas. Use of EMS method with not grounded source and receiver has a number of advantages vs VES.  It includes uselessness of grounding, possibility of  all year long field works, works  from an ice surface, on sites with rocky or stony cover, deserts and dry excavations. While  studying frozen rocks this method has much accuracy in  researching of  bed rocks and buried relief.
