Geophysical imaging
From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
Geophysical imaging (also known as geophysical tomography) is a minimally destructive geophysical technique that investigates the subsurface of a terrestrial planet.[2][3] Geophysical imaging is a noninvasive imaging technique with a high parametrical and spatio-temporal resolution.[4] It can be used to model a surface or object understudy in 2D or 3D as well as monitor changes.[4]
There are many applications of geophysical imaging some of which include imaging the lithosphere and imaging glaciers.[5][6] Many different techniques exist to perform geophysical imaging including seismic methods, electrical resistivity tomography, ground-penetrating radar, etc.
