Introduction

 

The Ludlum Model 4404-16 Geo-Exploration System provides radiation surface measurements to help discern the underlying geology. This instrument serves as an excellent oil exploration and ore prospecting tool. Its high sensitivity also facilitates large area surveys when looking for radioactive contamination.


Ludlum Model 4404-16 Geo-Exploration SystemThis system is comprised of a large scintillation radiation detector, multichannel electronics, a waterproof enclosure, a ruggedized laptop and a GPS (Global Positioning System). The software will display the radiation data just like a chart recorder and log the radiation data along with its corresponding GPS coordinates into a comma delimited file. The accompanying “KML Generator” software program converts the data files into files suitable for viewing in Google Earth or any other 3D earth browser implementing the KML encoding.
