THE CONTEXT

The project in context.

Non-invasive instrumental survey to a depth of 10 meters below ground level for the detection of unexploded ordnance (UXO) in the Collecchio (PR) area to support the design and subsequent installation of a pipeline.

THE CHALLENGE

Understanding the risk.

The geological complexity of the area, characterized by gravel deposits mixed with water-saturated clay layers, created significant challenges for the propagation of magnetic signals. Additionally, the presence of metallic fragments from previous agricultural activities increased noise in the recorded data, making it difficult to distinguish between UXO-related anomalies and spurious signals. The integrated approach and proprietary algorithms of Xplora enabled the isolation of signals relevant to UXO, significantly reducing false positives.

OUTPUTS

Data ready to use.

Three-dimensional map with characterization of ferromagnetic anomalies and identification of potential UXO-related risks for subsequent targeted clearance if required.

Technical report in compliance with national regulations.
