Gradiometry plays an important role in building planning by helping identify possible buried archaeology before construction begins. This article explains how gradiometry surveys work, what they can find, and why they are useful for developers, planners, and heritage specialists. Gradiometry is a way of measuring small changes in the Earth’s magnetic field across a piece of land. A gradiometer uses two sensors that are set...

Geophysical surveys are a useful way to explore historic sites without excavating the ground. This article explains how different survey methods can help archaeologists find buried walls, foundations, ditches, pits, roads, graves, and settlement layouts. It also looks at how these surveys help with planning excavation work, site management, and heritage protection across the UK. Geophysical surveys are used to study what is below...

Resistivity is an important archaeological survey that helps reveal what may be hidden beneath the ground without digging. This article explains how resistivity works, why soil moisture affects the results, and how different readings can point towards buried walls, ditches, floors, foundations, and other features. Resistivity is a way of looking for buried features without digging. It's a survey method that measures how strongly the...

Trust experienced Geophysical Surveyors for Solar Farms to identify underground hazards early, optimise design, and ensure smooth project delivery across the UK. A geophysical survey for solar farms is a detailed study of the ground before any panels, cables or access tracks are built. Surveyors use non invasive equipment to scan below the surface and map changes in soil, rock and groundwater. Techniques can include ground penetrating radar,...

We explore the difference between a geotechnical and geophysical survey? From soil composition analysis to detecting subsurface anomalies, we break down the differences, applications, and benefits of geotechnical and geophysical surveys. Geotechnical and geophysical surveys are two distinct types of methods used to obtain information about the earth's surface and subsurface. The main difference between a geotechnical and a geophysical...

Geophysical surveys are integral to determining the extent of new archaeological sites and help us to understand what lies hidden beneath the soil on a physical level. A geophysical survey gives us a window underground, allowing us to assess the scale of an archaeological site in a non-intrusive way. We can conduct them quickly without disturbing the ground, making them ideal for large areas where it would be too time-consuming and expensive to excavate. The...
