AGI SuperSting Resistivity Imaging System Interdisciplinary principle illustration of
multi-electrode resistivity and induced polarization measurement system for near-surface, groundwater and geotechnical investigations.
What science makes it possible The
The electrode geometry determines the apparent resistivity conversion, and the conductivity is sensitive to moisture content and mineral composition; the inversion requires constraints and error models, and the color profile is not a directly captured underground photo.
Understanding the product requires putting a single formula back into the system: input measurements, materials and boundary conditions are calculated by the model and then compared with actual data. Approximations at different scales cannot be unconditionally spliced, and relevant tools will indicate applicable conditions respectively.
Commercial applications and engineering boundaries
can be used in engineering surveys to compare water content anomalies and stratigraphic distribution, and then verify the interpretation through drilling or geological data. The

Wenner Apparent Resistivity
Equally spaced surface Wenner array; the result is the apparent resistivity, not the inversion of the true formation value.
2D DC Resistivity Lab
2D finite volume forward modeling; fixes the anomaly body geometry and only inverts the two resistivities of the background and the anomaly body. The closed sides and bottom surface have zero potential, which belongs to the finite box model; an example of synthetic verification using empty data.
Darcy Flow
Saturated, laminar flow, homogeneous one-dimensional porous medium.
Theis Drawdown
Infinitely confined aquifer, completely penetrating well, constant pumping; does not include boundaries and well losses.
linked model is used for independent learning and magnitude analysis and does not copy the manufacturer's proprietary software or pass product performance certification.
