6. Static and Dynamic Measurements
6.1 Static Measurements
Data can be collected in Static Mode over a list of known anomalies or targets. These targets
can be determined from a previous geophysical survey or from the results of the MetalMapper
2x2 dynamic mode survey. A target list file is loaded into the software (see Chapter 4.6), which
then directs the operator to collect Static Measurements over each target. The standard static
anomaly measurement (SAM) requires the operator to collect data within 20 cm laterally from
the defined target location.
To begin a survey, load the Project File using the "Load" button and selecting the .csv Project
File. This will display the targets in the navigation window. Select the target by clicking on it.
To select Static measurement targets, ensure that "Static Mode" is selected in the "Parameter
Setup" window. To select Dynamic lines, ensure that "Dynamic Mode" is selected in the
"Parameter Setup" window.
Select the type of measurement from the drop-down menu. The zoom can be changed by using
the buttons under "Center At". The buttons under "Orientation" change the way the map is
displayed. The cart is denoted on the map by the white square, and the operator (back of cart)
is shown as the smaller pink square. The yellow lines display cart heading and velocity (speed
