GEM-2 - Ground Conductivity Meter
The GEM-2 measures apparent electrical conductivity and magnetic susceptibility of the ground and will detect metals and voids in the ground. Its powerful transmitter and wide coil separation allows scanning to depths up to 10 meters.
The GEM-2 is designed to bring cutting-edge technology with simplicity of use. The light-weight GEM-2 (3.6kg) can be used as a handheld or UAV sensor with the optional UAV Kit Package.
