VsSurf® software is designed with the user in mind. Created for application across several disciplines, the software is closely supported for ease of use. Below are examples of some of the many things you can do with VsSurf software.

  • QC in the field.

  • Non-intrusive.

  • Deploy anywhere.

  • Compact.

  • Easy travel.

VsSurf 1dS® software for making 1D Shear (S-) wave depth-velocity profiles using passive and active seismic sources:

  • Determine earthquake ground shaking potential per National Earthquake Hazard Reduction Program ("NEHRP") and/or International Building Code ("IBC") - Vs100 (feet) / Vs30 (meters)

  • Constrain the depth and velocity of subsurface layers

  • Estimate density & rheology of earth & rock

  • Understand rippability and excavation costs

  • Reads both SEGY and SEG2 file formats

  • Auto-generate a final report

VsSurf 2dS® software or On-Demand Processing (let us process your data for you) for 1D & 2D S-wave depth-velocity profiles using passive and active seismic sources:

  • Evaluating rippability

  • Imaging depth & velocity to reveal the lateral extent of subsurface layers

  • Locating potential faults

  • Modeling density & rheology of earth & rock (S-waves)

  • Differentiating ore & waste rock zones

  • Monitoring earthen structures (Tailings retention dams, reservoir dams, tailings piles, etc.)

  • Determining the effectiveness of ground remediation projects, such as pilings and compaction

  • Reads both SEGY and SEG2 file formats

  • Auto-generate a final report
