Discover the incredible utility of four popular electromagnetic geophysical techniques in the comprehensive book "GeoRadar, FDEM, TDEM, and AEM Methods." Authored by accomplished researchers Fabio Giannino and Giovanni Leucci, this invaluable resource delves deep into the theory and practical applications of ground penetrating radar, the frequency domain electromagnetic method, the time domain electromagnetic method, and the airborne electromagnetic method.

The authors provide a comprehensive overview of each technique, explaining their economics, planning, and logistics for on-site deployment. They also explore the potential output of these methods and how they can be combined with other sources of below- and above-ground information to create a digitized common point cloud containing a diverse range of data.

With a wealth of 25 years of professional experience spanning over 40 countries worldwide, Giannino and Leucci offer readers a thorough description of the optimal use of GPR, FDEM, TDEM, and AEM. They demonstrate their flexibility and applicability to a wide variety of use cases, making this book a must-read for professionals in the field.

In addition to its theoretical foundations, the book includes a comprehensive introduction to electromagnetic theory, covering the operative principles and theory of ground penetrating radar (GPR) and the frequency domain electromagnetic method (FDEM). It also delves into hardware architecture and surveying, encompassing GPR, FDEM, time domain electromagnetic method (TDEM), and airborne electromagnetic (AEM) surveying.

Furthermore, the book features a collection of case studies, showcasing the practical applications of these techniques in real-world scenarios. These case studies include a multiple-geophysical archaeological GPR survey in Turkey and a UXO search in a building area in Italy using FDEM.

The authors also provide valuable discussions on planning and mobilizing a campaign, the shipment and clearance of survey equipment, and managing the operative aspects of these geophysical surveys.

Whether you're a geophysicist, engineer, or researcher, "GeoRadar, FDEM, TDEM, and AEM Methods" is an essential resource that will enhance your understanding and expertise in electromagnetic geophysical techniques. Its comprehensive coverage, practical insights, and expert guidance make it a valuable asset for anyone seeking to explore the vast potential of these innovative methods in their work.
