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).
276-300 (675 Records)
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.).
A Geophysical Survey at Meriam's Corner (1994)
Radar and magnetic surveys at the Minute Man Nat. Hist. site reveal many buried features including soil lenses. Survey for Donald Jones (Office of Public Archaeol., Boston Univ.).
A Geophysical Survey at Montpelier Mansion (1989)
Radar and conductivity surveys locate buried paths. Survey for Francine Bromberg (Engineering-Science),
A Geophysical Survey at Morven (1987)
A radar, magnetic, and conductivity examination of the land around this historic house; survey for Leah P. Sloshberg (New Jersey State Museum).
A Geophysical Survey at Mount Vernon (1984)
The radar survey was particularly good for locating French drains and unmarked graves. Survey for: Alain Outlaw (Virginia Hist Landmarks Com), and Mount Vernon Ladies Assoc of Union
A GEOPHYSICAL SURVEY AT NINFA-CIGNANA (1990)
Conductivity survey in Italy for Graziella Fiorentini (Soprintendenza ai Beni Culturali).
A geophysical survey at Peachfield (1988)
Magnetic, radar, and resistsivity surveys of the Peachfield Plantation reveal a lens of cultural fill in one yard. Survey for the National Society of the Colonial Dames,
A Geophysical Survey at Poquoson (1997)
Geophysical search with radar, conductivity, magnetic, and resistivity surveys of this early colonial site; survey also in the bottom of a broad excavation. Survey for Robert Haas (Virginia Foundation for Arch. Research).
A Geophysical Survey at Puddle Dock, Strawbery Banke (1998)
Conductivity and resistivity surveys explore a former waterfront. Survey for Martha Pinello (Strawbery Banke Museum).
Geophysical Survey at Rojdi (1983)
A magnetic survey in western India for Gregory Possehl (U of Penn). Basalt stone was more harmful than helpful.
A Geophysical Survey at Rural Plains (2008)
Radar and conductivity surveys find debris, but probably not the fortification trench that was sought. Survey for Dave Dutton (Dutton Associates).
A Geophysical Survey at Saint-Gaudens National Historic Site (1991)
Radar gave poor results in the glacial soils, but the magnetic survey may have located the steel armatures that were used by this sculptor. Survey for Jim Mueller (NPS).
A Geophysical Survey at Site 36B136 (1986)
A radar and magnetic survey around Sarah Furnace. For Conran A. Hay (Archaeological & Historical Consultants).
A geophysical survey at Strawbery Banke (1993)
Resistivity and conductivity surveys appeared to be helpful in the exploration of the area of the proposed visitors' center. Survey for Martha Pinello (Strawbery Banke Museum).
A GEOPHYSICAL SURVEY AT TESO DOS BICHOS (1985)
Magnetic, resistivity, conductivity and radar surveys on Marajo Island, at the mouth of the Amazon River. Magnetic survey was excellent, but radar was poor. Survey for Anna Roosevelt (American Museum of Natural History).
A Geophysical Survey at the Abraham Van Wyck House (1984)
A radar, magnetic, and resistivity survey in New York state for Roberta Wingerson (Cultural Resource Surveys).
A Geophysical Survey at the Alexandria Freedmen's Cemetery (1998)
Neither the radar nor the conductivity survey appears to have aided the search for unmarked graves here. Survey for Terry H. Klein (URS Greiner).
A Geophysical Survey at the Bruton Parish Churchyard (1985)
Resistivity was best in the search for the Bacon vault; radar detected unmarked graves; magnetic and conductivity surveys were not as helpful. Survey for the Vertitat Foundation and it was coordinated mainly by John Milewski.
Geophysical Survey at the Cahokia Site, May, 2003 (2003)
From May 17 through May 23, 2003, the author with the assistance of staff of Cultural Resource Analysts, Inc., workshop participants, and in cooperation with Dr. Rinita Dalan of Minnesota State University, collected near-surface geophysical data at the Cahokia Mounds State Historic Site in Illinois. This work, in connection with the National Park Service workshop, “Current Archaeological Prospection Advances for Non-Destructive Investigations in the 21st Century,” combined electromagnetic...
A Geophysical Survey at the Carroll House (1987)
Radar, magnetic, and resistivity surveys at the Carroll Mansion in Annapolis. Did not detect bones of reburials in cemetery. Survey for Paul Shackel (Historic Annapolis), Robert Worden (Charles Carroll of Carrollton).
A Geophysical Survey at the Chancellorsville Battlefield (2000)
The rubble-filled cellar at the Bullock site was readily detected, but not the chimney remains. The fireplace foundation of the Fairview cabin appears to have been detected. Survey for Robert Krick (NPS).
A Geophysical Survey at the East Dunbarton Cemetery (2002)
Radar, conductivity, and resistivity surveys locate some unmarked graves. Survey for Frank Nastasi (Natasi and Associates).
A Geophysical Survey at the Ellwood-Lacy House (1985)
A magnetic, radar, and resistivity survey around this early house found many interesting patterns, but probably not the slave cabins that were sought. Survey for Doug Campana (NPS).
