Using the previous aerial views of the project location, we plan a route for our technician to thoroughly collect data to generate our cohesive gamma map. This gives us a detailed map of potential areas to eventually collect our samples from.
Shown here is the Portable Gamma Equipment. This system measures signals in the ground in a rapid and reliable manner. The signals are analyzed for patterns and used to generate maps that can reveal underground geological structures including faults, dikes, and most importantly patterns that are related to groundwater movement.

On this map red to orange is interpreted as competent rock; While blue to green shows signs of fracturing and higher possibilities of groundwater.
Gamma Data Collection Equipment
Using our proprietary RAP equipment (Rapid Acoustic Profiling.) We measure sounds generated by the motion of the Earth’s crust as it rises and falls, much like the tides of the ocean. What we are measuring specifically is energy and noise, telling us where water has the highest probability of gathering.
Expand SectionThe RAP and Gamma data is used in conjunction to search for porous zones. We mark these porous zones as targets and eventually narrow it down to the most optimal candidates for well drilling. This is the Global Water difference.
Figure 1 - Project Location
Our final RAP report shows a detailed map of the best locations for drilling and the most optimal depths. RAP targets have been processed to 1,200 feet below ground surface. White and yellow represent areas that average more solid rock and soil. While orange to pink represent open fractures or gravel zones that are more likely to carry water.
T1 and T2 are the final drilling prospects. Data has shown that targets like these, exhibiting these particular readings, tend to yield much higher flow rates for groundwater than average well sites. These conclusions can be seen in our reports and case studies. Although the risks cannot be removed completely. The Global Water difference optimizes your likelihood of finding water.
In this example our maps show the existing low output well 60 feet from the new high accuracy drill site provided by global. The difference in their water output being (x amount of gallons) Demonstrating the need for precise and accurate identification of drill sites.
