Video: Resistivity mapping introduction ============================================= In this video we introduce the resistivity method as an active survey type which probes the sub-surface in terms of its electrical resistivity. We derive a solution for the current flow density in a homogenous halfspace and then visualize the potential field for a two electrode setup. The need for a four electrode setup is explained. .. image:: VidResistivity1.png :target: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=5KgupS8gdts&t=508s :width: 400 :alt: Principle of 4 point resistivity mapping Next we explore the possibility to map a lateral homogenous (vertically variable) sub-surface using the principal of vertical electrical sounding: Video: Principle of vertical eletrical sounding ================================================= Next we explore the possibility to map a lateral homogenous (vertically variable) sub-surface using the principal of vertical electrical sounding: .. image:: VidResistivity2.png :target: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=l2-sxg65KUE&t=955s :width: 400 :alt: Vertical eletrical sounding
