Magnetometers and archaeological investigations
Since the early 1950’s magnetometers have been used in archaeological investigations and that is why GEM Systems is joining over 3,000 archaeologists in San Francisco for the 80th annual meeting of the Society for American Archaeology. Why don’t you drop by booth 110 in Grand Ballroom B, at the San Francisco Hilton to see the latest technology available to non-invasively evaluate an archaeological site. booth 110 in Grand Ballroom B, at the San Francisco Hilton

Robotic Geophysical Mapping
GEM Systems is collaborating with Carleton University on a 6 month project to demonstrate that the Canadian Kapvik space exploration rover can be used to make geomagnetic measurements. The goal of the project will be to demonstrate that that the two (2) technologies (magnetometer and rover) can work together. It is anticipated that the development of a custom-made boom for the rover will be required to overcome the magnetic interference of Kapvik. Through the project GEM Systems will demonstrate that its UAV Magnetometer sensor is lightweight and versatile enough to be used on a high tech rover, in addition to a…

Magnetics in Archaeology
Magnetics are an increasingly key exploration method for archaeological applications. Main benefits lie in the ability to resolve details non-invasively, the wide range of artifacts and cultural affects that are detectable, and the low-cost of magnetics in comparison to other geophysical methods. Having detailed knowledge of a site prior to investigation reduces excavation costs while ensuring that no part of the site is missed. In addition, as many projects are time sensitive, availability of a rapid, effective method may mean the difference between recovery and non-recovery. GEM’s unique Overhauser & Potassium magnetometer/gradiometer systems combine data quality, survey efficiency,…

Programmable Base Stations
GEM’s base station units enable remote programming via either a personal computer or the base station unit itself. The main benefit is more efficient use of memory and batteries while in the field. For example, a base station can be pre-programmed and left in the field for a month or more of operation – minimizing the infield maintenance and support of base station units on either airborne or ground surveys. 3 Programming modes are provided: Daily Scheduling (define working hours and minutes each day) This mode provides economy of memory and battery usage on a daily basis Flexible…
