As you know we are pretty happy with the system
We have been pretty busy with it (till this hiatus). As you know, in 2002 we did the Arctic work which is soon to be published. I spent last September in Ghana with 3 boxes (and I should have shipped more) - the primary reason was for purposes of VSP's in Lake Bosumtwi but we did a lot of hammer and far-offset into the boxes from the airguns on the Lake too. This was under humid and hot near 'jungle' conditions with no problems. Last year we also employed a few boxes on top of Turtle Mountain fo ...
Really, really impressed!
Really, really impressed! [after a demonstration of the Geode user interface]
I wish to express my sincere appreciation for the Geode recording system from Geometrics. I have used the system successfully in several projects for site investigation and seismic microzonation. The ruggedness of the system combined with its unsurpassed reliability have enabled us to conduct our field work with confidence. Additionally, the quality control and test
functionalities of the system give us the ability t ...Congratulations with your new Geode and MGOS system!
I was pleasantly surprised how easily it was to get the system to operate. I just installed the MGOS software in less than 5 minutes on my usual Laptop. Restarted the Laptop and connected the Geodes to the build-in netcard. Started MGOS and every thing worked as expected. I look forward to work with the system in the field for the next many years. I have been working with engineering seismic systems for more than 20 years, and the Geode and MGOS system is the must flexible engineering seismic ...

With a recent modification, Geometrics' Geode system is capable of monitoring and recording seismic data on 200 channels continuously 24 hours a day, seven days a week. Shell International Exploration and Production, Inc. has purchased and accepted such a system and has been using it to simultaneously monitor and record 192 channels at a 0.25 msec sampling interval. Geometrics' Multiple Geode Operating Software (MGOS) controller software is used to manage robotic tape libraries with sufficient ...

We have owned and operated Geometrics seismographs (including models: 2401, StrataView, StrataVisor, and Geodes) for more than 15 years. The Kansas Geological Survey has been completely satisfied with the performance and data these instruments have provided throughout the range of extreme environments we have operated them in (arctic regions at temperatures below -45 C to desert areas with blowing sand and temperatures above 45 C to the high moisture settings of swamps). Our instruments are moun ...

I would like to take this opportunity to thank you for all you have done for us over the last ten years. We have four StrataVisors that are in the field almost continuously. They have been extremely reliable despite the rough handling they receive. PASSCAL acts as a equipment facility for US research institutions. We loan the equipment to investigators for research and classroom education. These investigators receive little or no training in the use of the equipment before receiving it in the f ...
We are extremely pleased with the performance of these instruments and the continued outstanding...
The Engineering and Environmental Geophysics Group at ETH Zürich owns ten 24-channel Geometric's Geodes. I understand that we were one of the earliest groups to purchase such systems. We have used them for a wide variety of projects that have included ultra-high resolution seismic reflection studies, relatively conventional seismic reflection surveying, surface and crosshole tomographic investigations and long-term microseismicity monitoring. The instruments are versatile, rugged and easy to us ...
We could not be more pleased with the data...
I want to thank you once again for the all of the effort that you and your colleagues at PGSI and associates at Geometrics put into the SAFOD P/GSI array experiment. We could not be more pleased with the data, including not only the 100% successful recording of the offset shots but also the fabulous earthquake recordings from the array. Your team worked very hard to make everything work and the spectacular results speak for themselves. As you know, we had incredibly good luck when an event in th ...

We have found that the Geometrics G-880 magnetometer as reliable as any instrument we have ever used in marine applications. The lack of noise in 880 data collected, even in the most difficult environments, is of course the most notable feature that we have found but its outstanding reliability is an added, and greatly welcomed, benefit. We have owned the magnetometer for about 10 years and have found it to be like the famous watch, even if it takes a lickin' it keeps on tickin' . From locatin ...

I have attached an example of the sort of thing that we usually use your magnetometers for. Its a single-sensor survey using the ag132 for guidance. The transect interval is very coarse for archaeology (2 meter spacing), which is why we refer to it as a reconnaissance survey. It was pretty effective for covering a large area rapidly and shows the layout of the town quite well. The recon survey was followed with high-resolution (.25m transect spacing) resistance & mag gradient survey of small ...

Thank you for your very prompt reply. It's been a long time since you & I last spoke but I'll never forget the support you gave us back in 1997 when I was working on an offshore salvage expedition off the coast of South Carolina. We had rented a G-880 from another rental company & had a significant set up problem linking the laptop computer with our GPS system. When it was obvious that they could not fix the problem, we called your company & you spent a good solid two – three hou ...

I would like to take this opportunity just to credit at Geometrics for the efficient and professional service I recently received when purchasing a Geode seismograph. With the advice I received from Deb Underwood prior to our purchase and rapid turn-around of our order by Valerie Eatherington, through to the post sales support from George Tait, it is very comforting to know that a product as highly regarded as the Geode seismograph is provided by a company with a team who are just as competent. ...

We were able to use MagPick’s pipeline method to compute the depth of a buried cable from data collected by two G-882 cesium sensors set up as a transverse gradiometer. Later, we were able to compare these results against the expected depth of the cable for over thirty kilometers of its route. Nearly all of the computed depths agreed with expected values. By the way, you should give Misha his own testimonial section. He was extremely helpful in teaching us how to process our gradiometer ...

Ross,
It was good to talk to you today. Thanks for the information on the G-882. I think at this time I will need to wait until at least the fall to think about getting a second G-882. I started in the 70's doing survey work and have used at least 5 different type magnetometers. The Geometrics G-882 is by far the best. On one job I did a few years ago, I was able to determine quarter gamma targets with the cesium magnetometer.
In 1995 we used a Geometrics 866 proton magnetometer to locate th ...I would like to tell you that our 858 Magnetometer is working great even after about 10 years of use

Dear Ross, We are writing to thank you for your generous sponsorship of the American Geophysical Union (AGU) Near Surface Geophysics (NS) luncheon that was held at the Fall AGU Meeting in December 2009. The NS Focus Group Luncheon was attended by ~80 NS members, of which approximately 50% were students. NS Chair Lee Slater discussed growth in NS membership (now at 3007 primary and secondary affiliation members combined), progress on meeting the objectives for the second term of the focus group, ...
Geometrics has proven to be an outstanding company with very high quality products and service level
The G-856 and G-858 magnetometers are an essential part of our site assessment toolbox
I have used Geometrics magnetometers and support systems for over 30 years
It was somewhere in the 70's that I was first introduced to Geometrics when Newmont Exploration acuired a aeromag system for Tsumeb Corp Ltd of Namibia in a 1968 Cessna206. I was geophysicist at Tsumeb then. It was somewhere in the 70's that Misac Nabighian introduced me to Sheldon Breiner. Since then, I have been in the company of such characters as Richard Hansen, Ed DeRidder, George Tait, Don Pierce, Ross Johnson, & Verne Hickey. I have used Geometrics magnetometers and support systems f ...
I would like to extend my thanks for all troubleshooting and start up help received...
I would like to extend my thanks for all troubleshooting and start up help received, it has been a steep learning curve trying to get up to speed on an entirely new system and software, as well as attempting to nail down MagPick processing on the fly has been interesting to say the least. I appreciate all the support Geometrics has offered over this process of throw and go, trying to hit the ground running seldom works out as planned with new equipment and software in such a quick time frame, s ...
Because of people like you who really do spend time to help the prospectors....
