Abstract
While standard airborne magnetic, radiometric and gravity technologies have not undergone significant changes over the last decade, the techniques have each advanced incrementally. Most of the improvements are related to better acquisition systems which allow for higher speed sampling, improved processing techniques, and, more than often, the choice of aircraft platform which can benefit lower and slower survey flying. Using a series of example datasets, we review the current “state-of-the-art” in each technology demonstrating what can be achieved from a resolution perspective and ultimately setting a bench-mark for the sort of data quality industry should demand when resolution is key to project success.
