Signature projects
  

Processing and analyzing data for 10-month long seismic TRT survey conducted by GD Test and Ghella (Italy) in a TBM excavated tunnel in Brazil;

Three-dimensional X-PanelTM seismic tomography combined with Single Hole Reflector Tracing (SHRTTM) conducted in one of the Rocky Mountain States to contour cavities posing threads of discharging their muddy contents into a tunnel being excavated below;

Imaging viaduct pile foundations in Pittsburgh, PA, using X-PanelTM seismic tomography and SHRTTM seismic ground imaging, and Borehole Magnetic Gradiometry;

Precise seismic location of old brick sewer in Pittsburgh, PA, using X-PanelTM tomography and SHRTTM ground imaging;

Detection of old mine workings using X-PanelTM tomography in Sharples, West Virginia;

Characterization of deep solution mining cavities in Colorado using X-PanelTM tomography and SHRTTM ground imaging;

Geophysical investigation (X-PanelTM, SHRTTM, and Borehole Magnetic Gradiometry) for assessing unknown bridge
foundations in SW Colorado - for FHWA;

Assessing ground conditions around Zion-Mt.Caramel tunnel in Utah using Tunnel Reflector Tracing (TRTTM) seismic
imaging - for FHWA;

TRTTM ground imaging ahead of advancing tunnel face in Torino, Italy;

Three-dimensional X-PanelTM tomographic imaging of geologic structure in exploratory studies facility in Yucca Mountain Project,
NV - for US DOE.

All surveys were conducted using swept frequency sources of C-Thru Ground's own design coupled to the ground either mechanically or through water. Broad frequency range generated by those sources, and recorded by the proper digital surveying equipment contributed to a high resolution of  imaged ground features.
