Geophysical Survey (Investigation Type)
Investigations that rely on ground-based instrument sensing techniques to create images and/or maps for archaeological research (e.g. magnetometry, resistivity, or ground penetrating radar).
251-275 (629 Records)
Radar survey for unmarked graves done for Steven R. Brick (Brick Real Estate).
A Geophysical Search for Molly Pitcher’s Well (1988)
A radar and magnetic survey on the Monmouth Battlefield probably did not locate the well. Survey for: Robert N. Ferrell (Monmouth County Heritage Committee).
The Geophysical Search for the Aircraft (1986)
Search for WWII bombers and fighters buried below the Greenland icecap; radar unfortunately explored only to a depth of about 60 m and aircraft were deeper. Survey for Patrick Epps and Richard Taylor (Greenland Expedition Society).
A Geophysical Search for the Early Fort at Jamestown (1994)
An initial radar and resistivity search for the early fort on the island. For David Orr (NPS).
A Geophysical Search for the Widow Tapp Farm House (1989)

Geophysical Studies at Kirtland Air Force Base Proposed Plan for Archaeological Ground Truthing (1995)
This report presents the results of a geophysical study of five sites on KAFB. The objectives for the geophysical study were two fold: (1) to explore the effectiveness of near surface geophysical techniques for verifying the presence and nature of architectural and other cultural features and (2) to evaluate the strengths and weaknesses of each of the four remote sensing techniques being employed--resistivity, gradiometer, magnetometer, and ground penetrating radar (GPR)--by assessing their...
A Geophysical Survey at Appomattox Court House (2000)
Magnetic, conductity, resistivity, and radar surveys may have located some traces of buried buildings, but some remained hidden. Survey for Allen Cooper and Joe Williams (NPS).
A GEOPHYSICAL SURVEY AT APPOMATTOX MANOR (1981)
A search for General Grant's cabin at City Point that he occupied during the siege of Petersburg. This survey, for Dave Orr (NPS), did not locate the cabin.
A Geophysical Survey at Belair Mansion (1997)
Search with radar, conductivity, and resistivity surveys for remains of former gardens on terraces; for Elizabeth Kryder-Reid, Stephen Patrick (City of Bowie Museums).
A GEOPHYSICAL SURVEY AT EPPES MANSION (1983)
Survey with radar and magnetometer reveal the cellar of an earlier building; survey for Dave Orr (NPS) at City Point, Virginia.
A Geophysical Survey at Ferry Farm (1990)
This radar, magnetic, and conductivity survey at George Washington's boyhood home appears to have detected many modern features. Survey for Robert Siegrist (Ferry Farm Project),
A Geophysical Survey at Fort Griswold (1984)
Survey of this Revolutionary War fort in Connecticut for Ricardo J. Elia (Boston U) locates underground remains of blockhouses.
A Geophysical Survey at Fort Necessity (1988)
A magnetic, radar, and resistivity exploration of several parts of this early battlefield. Survey for David Orr (NPS).
A Geophysical Survey at Gannagaro State Historic Site (1982)
A magnetic and radar exploration of the Gannagaro State Historic Site in New York for Charles Fisher. Periglacial soils were complex.
A GEOPHYSICAL SURVEY AT GREEN SPRING FARM PARK (1991)
Radar and magnetic surveys delineated zones of rubble that may be building debris. Survey for Joe Dent (American University).
A Geophysical Survey at Gunston Hall (1998)
Radar, conductivity, and magnetic surveys trace former paths at this site. Survey for Thomas A. Lainhoff and Andrew Veech (Gunston Hall Plantation).
A Geophysical Survey at Harpers Ferry (1989)
Conductivity, magnetic, and resistivity surveys around the Provost Office. Survey for Paul Shackel and Susan Frye (NPS).
A geophysical survey at Historic Christ Church (1985)
A radar and magnetic survey sought unmarked graves and a brick kiln at this early Virginia church. Survey for L. Van Loan Naisawald (Foundation for Historic Christ Church).
A Geophysical Survey at Jackson Shrine (1984)
Survey with radar, magnetic, and resistivity equipment for Dana Linck (NPS) at the site where General Jackson died during the US Civil War.
A Geophysical Survey at Johnson Hall (1984)
A radar and resistivity survey at Johnson Hall State Historic Site for Lois M. Feister (NY State Office of Parks, Rec, Hist Pres).
The Geophysical Survey at La Ciudad (1980)
An exploration of downtown Phoenix with radar and EM for Ron Yablon and Don Weaver (Museum of Northern Arizona).
A Geophysical Survey at La Muculufa (1990)
Conductivity and susceptibility survery reveals terraces. Survey for Brian McConnell (Brown University).
A GEOPHYSICAL SURVEY AT LAMINGTON (1986)
Radar, conductivity, resistivity, and magnetic surveys were done at two cemeteries, with partial success. Survey for John Seidel (Pluckemin Archaeological Project).
A Geophysical Survey at Long Hill (1991)
Radar and conductivity surveys at a historical house in Maryland. Survey for Michael Trostel (Baltimore, Maryland).
A Geophysical Survey at Malvern Hill (2000)
Thanks to a historical map, a radar and conductivity survey could identify two former buildings for slaves. Survey for Donna Seifert (John Milner Assoc.).
