Geogiga Seismic Pro -

For large projects with hundreds of shot points, the software’s batch processing mode is invaluable. It allows users to apply consistent picking and inversion parameters across multiple records, dramatically reducing processing time and ensuring methodological consistency.

Many projects require deeper investigation than active sources (like a sledgehammer) can provide. The software allows for merging dispersion curves from active and passive datasets (e.g., ambient noise), enabling a broad depth range—from a few meters to over 100 meters—within a single, unified profile. geogiga seismic pro

In practice, Geogiga Seismic Pro is a workhorse. A typical application involves a site investigation for a bridge foundation: A geophysicist deploys a 24-channel seismograph with 4.5 Hz geophones. They acquire data using a 10-kg sledgehammer. Within an hour, Geogiga Seismic Pro produces a Vs profile showing 15 meters of soft clay over dense sand. The engineer then uses this Vs30 value (average shear-wave velocity to 30 m) to calculate seismic site class per building codes (e.g., IBC, Eurocode 8). Similarly, the software is used for detecting karst features, assessing liquefaction potential, and mapping the depth to bedrock for tunnel boring. For large projects with hundreds of shot points,
