EMIGMA Premium Series

EMIGMA for Airborne FEM

The Airborne FEM package also includes Ground FEM and is available as an add-on to other EMIGMA Complete licenses or as a standalone product.

In the airborne FEM method, the transmitter and receiver coils are generally housed in a single case and are towed by a helicopter. Airborne FEM offers the advantage of collecting large amounts of data over a relatively short period of time. Being not limited by the survey size, EMIGMA allows rapid airborne FEM modeling and inversion. EMIGMA is an excellent tool for survey design as well as for interpreting measured data.

The package offers very good routines for calculating apparent resistivity as well as an adaptation of the Sengpiel section techniques. EMIGMA also allows you to process your FEM data (ground and airborne) through several 1D inversion tools and produce these as conductivity depth sections relative both to ground level and to actual GPS elevation.
