After graduation he worked in the EGM department first as junior, then senior researcher, senior lecturer, assistant professor. In 1995 left his post of deputy Dean of the Geophysics Department of MGRI and became lead geophysist of GNPP “Aerogeophysica”, in 2004 was appointed chief geophysist. Author and co-author of more than 100 scientific papers, his main area of interest ¬ potential fields processing and interpretation, complex interpretation of geological and geophysical data.
Latest advanced in airborne survey technologies at different exploration stages
The current state of airborne geophysical methods and technologies allows the use of their results in almost all stages of the exploration process from reconnaissance work on the stage of the general prospecting to prospect surveys and preliminary investigation of deposits. The line spacing of carried out surveys at these stages are from 500 to 50 meters. Highlights of airborne geophysical surveys (high-performance, complexity, low cost, data homogeneity, informative) determine the feasibility of using them as leading in order to be able to use their interpretation results for the operational management of an exploration process.
