SkyTEM is a company with airborne electromagnetic survey technology designed by the Danish Government and universities specifically for efficient and effective mapping of groundwater resources.
The technology has been used commercially since 2003 to map large aquifer systems in countries including Denmark, the Netherlands, India, the U.S., Canada, and Australia. SkyTEM’s airborne technology is able to measure subtle changes between aquifer materials (e.g., sand) and non-aquifer materials (e.g., clay) at and below the ground to depths of nearly 1,000 feet. Thus, it is a valuable technology for defining aquifer boundaries and characteristics.
