Geophysical survey definition

Geophysical survey means a radar, magnetic, electric, gravity, thermal, or seismic survey.

Geophysical survey means any investigation carried out on the surface of the ground to determine the nature and structure of the subsurface; « levé géophysique »

Geophysical survey means the search, by instruments for the presence of suitable underground geological structure and includes the sinking of bore-holes for detonating explosives for the purpose, but not the drilling or deep bore-holes or the sinking of trial shafts, trenches, or other kinds of large and deep excavations connected with prospecting;
