Seismic reflection is ideal for mapping geology at depths exceeding 50 m.<\/p>\n<p>Deep seismic reflection surveying is the most advanced technique in geophysics today, thanks to its application on a huge scale for oil and gas exploration. This technique does, however, have other applications on a smaller scale, such as for civil engineering project site investigation. The theory is\u00a0identical, but the acquisition\u00a0and processing parameters are adjusted to provide a higher resolution at shallow depths.<\/p>\n<p><b>Typical applications of seismic reflection include:<\/b><\/p>\n<ul>\n<li><a href=\"http:\/\/ground.geophysicsgpr.com\/applications\/oil-gas-exploration\/\">Oil and gas exploration;<\/a><\/li>\n<li><a href=\"http:\/\/ground.geophysicsgpr.com\/techniques\/georadar\/geological-mapping\/\">Geological mapping studies;<\/a><\/li>\n<li><a href=\"http:\/\/ground.geophysicsgpr.com\/applications\/mineral-exploration\/\">Mineral exploration;<\/a><\/li>\n<li><a href=\"http:\/\/ground.geophysicsgpr.com\/applications\/civil-engineering-and-infrastructure-projects\/\">Civil engineering site investigations.<\/a><\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<p>For more information, please contact our\u00a0<a href=\"mailto:info@geophysicsgpr.com\">Ground Survey Team<\/a>.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n<\/div><\/div><\/div><\/div><\/div><div id=\"pg-749-1\"  class=\"panel-grid panel-no-style\" ><div id=\"pgc-749-1-0\"  class=\"panel-grid-cell\" ><div id=\"panel-749-1-0-0\" class=\"so-panel widget widget_sow-image panel-first-child panel-last-child\" data-index=\"1\" ><div class=\"panel-widget-style panel-widget-style-for-749-1-0-0\" ><div\n\t\t\t\n\t\t\tclass=\"so-widget-sow-image so-widget-sow-image-default-8b5b6f678277-749\"\n\t\t\t\n\t\t>\n<div class=\"sow-image-container\">\n\t\t<img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" src=\"https:\/\/ground.geophysicsgpr.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/7\/2015\/07\/Ground_Techniques_Seismic_Reflection.jpg\" width=\"600\" height=\"280\" srcset=\"https:\/\/ground.geophysicsgpr.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/7\/2015\/07\/Ground_Techniques_Seismic_Reflection.jpg 600w, https:\/\/ground.geophysicsgpr.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/7\/2015\/07\/Ground_Techniques_Seismic_Reflection-300x140.jpg 300w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 600px) 100vw, 600px\" title=\"Ground Techniques Seismic Reflection\" alt=\"Ground Techniques Seismic Reflection\" \t\tclass=\"so-widget-image\"\/>\n\t<\/div>\n\n<\/div><\/div><\/div><\/div><div id=\"pgc-749-1-1\"  class=\"panel-grid-cell\" ><div id=\"panel-749-1-1-0\" class=\"so-panel widget widget_sow-image panel-first-child panel-last-child\" data-index=\"2\" ><div class=\"panel-widget-style panel-widget-style-for-749-1-1-0\" ><div\n\t\t\t\n\t\t\tclass=\"so-widget-sow-image so-widget-sow-image-default-8b5b6f678277-749\"\n\t\t\t\n\t\t>\n<div class=\"sow-image-container\">\n\t\t<img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" src=\"https:\/\/ground.geophysicsgpr.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/7\/2015\/07\/reflection-e1446832785672.jpg\" width=\"1230\" height=\"1478\" srcset=\"https:\/\/ground.geophysicsgpr.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/7\/2015\/07\/reflection-e1446832785672.jpg 1230w, https:\/\/ground.geophysicsgpr.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/7\/2015\/07\/reflection-e1446832785672-250x300.jpg 250w, https:\/\/ground.geophysicsgpr.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/7\/2015\/07\/reflection-e1446832785672-852x1024.jpg 852w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 1230px) 100vw, 1230px\" title=\"Technique de r\u00e9flection\" alt=\"Technique de r\u00e9flection\" \t\tclass=\"so-widget-image\"\/>\n\t<\/div>\n\n<\/div><\/div><\/div><\/div><\/div><\/div>","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>The seismic reflection method involves\u00a0inducing a seismic wave into the earth and recording the waves that are reflected from sub-surface layers.
