Environmental Monitoring

Protecting the Environment with Subsurface Mapping

Certerra leverages advanced geophysical technology to monitor and understand subsurface conditions. Our non-invasive approaches are designed to track dynamic environmental processes beneath the surface without causing disruption. By analyzing variations in physical properties, we reveal how natural systems evolve over time–providing an accurate understanding of underground changes. This technology provides actionable insights for complex environmental investigations, enabling informed decisions that support sustainability, resource protection, and long-term ecosystem health.

Protecting What’s Beneath: Why Environmental Monitoring Matters

Certerra delivers actionable intelligence through high-resolution geophysical imaging and continuous subsurface monitoring. This intelligence enables you to develop better environmental strategies, optimize site operations, and reduce uncertainty during critical projects.

Beyond static snapshots, our technology provides time-lapse monitoring that reveals how subsurface conditions evolve over time. This capability empowers proactive decision-making rather than reactive responses, turning complexity into clarity and uncertainty into confidence.

Plume Mapping

Geophysical plume mapping detects and delineates contaminate plumes, typically associated with industrial sites.

Groundwater Monitoring

Groundwater is an essential resource worldwide and often the sole water source in arid regions–making its discovery and protection critical for communities and industries.

Subsurface Tank Monitoring

Our subsurface tank monitoring methods continuously monitor the subsurface for changes, providing real-time data for informed decisions on containment integrity and environmental protection.

Landfill Characterization

Many landfills lack information on stored waste, creating potential groundwater contamination risks. Our geophysical methods provide non-invasive characterization and monitoring.

Environmental Monitoring

Proven Methods for Environmental Protection

We use multiple geophysical methods for environmental monitoring projects. These non-invasive techniques detect subsurface changes, track contamination, and assess site conditions, providing the continuous data you need for effective environmental management.

Electrical resistivity

Electrical resistivity measures variations in subsurface electrical properties to reveal differences in material composition.

Induced polarization

Induced polarization measures how subsurface materials temporarily store electrical charge to reveal compositional differences.

Electromagnetics

Electromagnetic methods measure variations in the conductivity of materials to identify subsurface property differences.
