MASW Package

Dedicated MASW Package*

(with 1-Year Technical Support)

*A complete set of hardware and software for MASW surveys

A dedicated package for MASW surveys is now available with a complete set of field equipment and data-analyzing software (see the table below).  The package is tailored specifically for most common types of MASW surveys (active, passive, and active-passive) to perform, for example, the seismic site characterization, also known as Vs30m evaluation, 2D shear-wave velocity (Vs) mapping for soil-bedrock characterization, anomaly detection through velocity (Vs) mapping, back scattering analysis (BSA), and common-offset sections.  The package includes the 24-channel DAQlink 4 seismograph from Seismic Source Company (SSC), a well-known manufacturer of seismic instruments located at Ponca City, Oklahoma, low-frequency (4.5 Hz) vertical geophones, seismic cable, hammer switch, and trigger extension cable.  It also includes the ParkSEIS-AUTO software that can process MASW field data sets in a fully automated mode for all types of applications mentioned above.  The seismograph's customization that curtailed unnecessary features for MASW surveys, for example, GPS and continuous recording needed in the earthquake seismology and oil & gas exploration but not needed for MASW, has made the overall cost under $27k including a land streamer (other competitive models cost more than $40k). The package comes with 1-year technical support. Please request a detailed quote for a complete package.
