The TDEM software package is designed for Ground, Airborne and Borehole surveys and can be acquired as part of EMIGMA Premium Complete, as an add-on to other EMIGMA Premium licenses or as a standalone product.
Ground applications include fixed and moving loop configurations, with measurements taken at the surface (inside and/or outside of the loop), while borehole applications are based on a fixed transmitter with measurements down a borehole (with a probe). Airborne surveys are typically moving loop systems. However, fixed loop transmitter with receivers mounted on UAV is also supported. Grounded transmitters with moving receivers in the time domain is supported at present only with forward modeling. EMIGMA allows for both single- and multi-component receivers. Typical field conventions are used for data components and modeling.
EMIGMA is an excellent tool for geophysical survey design as well as for interpreting measured data. The user may utilize single loops, profiles or boreholes or integrate multiple loops, profiles or boreholes. Visualization tools allow one to view the survey geometries in 2D and 3D modes.
Because EMIGMA is a true database, a single database may contain all of your TDEM surveys for a project area as well as your magnetic data, for example.
