COLORADO SPRINGS, Colo., Sept. 04, 2024 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) -- The Sanborn Map Company Inc. (Sanborn) has advanced its geophysical survey and mapping services by equipping its aircraft fleet with state-of-the-art geophysical survey technology developed and produced by the company. In addition to wingtip pods and a tail “stinger” that houses a sensitive magnetometer, inside the plane are a gamma ray spectrometer and data acquisition system, enabling the capture of detailed subsurface data crucial for mapping geological structures and natural resources.
Sanborn plane outfitted with wingtip extenders and tail “stinger” for high accuracy subsurface magnetic survey and geological mapping.
John Copple, CEO of Sanborn, emphasized the broad utility of the new systems: “Our electromagnetic, magnetic, and radiometric systems are designed to produce precise geophysical maps cost-effectively, serving essential sectors such as mineral exploration, water management, transportation, energy, and construction.”
Copple also emphasized Sanborn Geophysics' unique position in the marketplace. “With our acquisition last January, we have a team with decades of expertise in designing and building the geophysics sensors and systems we use.
