OKM GeoSeeker Mini Waterfinder

Water detector and cavity detector down to 100 meters (328 ft) depth

Like the water detector OKM GeoSeeker, the GeoSeeker Mini utilizes a geoelectrical measurement procedure based on Schlumberger. The water detector – that can also be used to detect underground cavities – determines the soil resistivity. Based on that apparent resistivity of the ground the detector is able to detect underground water resources like fresh water, drinking water, water-bearing gravel and groundwater level.

Operating the water and cavity detector GeoSeeker Mini

The water detector GeoSeeker Mini is operated via touchscreen. Select the measurement depth as well as the amount of scanning points and simply follow the graphical instructions. Due to easy-to-understand images and icons, the GeoSeeker Mini is multilingual by using pure picture language.

During the measurement the electrodes have to be replaced several times to measure the ground resistivity at certain places. All instructions can be read from the color display, where the results are presented after each single scan. At the very end of a measurement the final result is shown as a graphical 2D scan image.

Water detection

Underground water resources have a good electrical conductivity and measuring its resistivity will result in low apparent resistivity values. The capability of water detection is very useful for

• dowsers, water finders
• well builders, drilling companies
• agriculture, fruit growing
• mining, building contractors

Detectable subsurface water deposits could be

• ground water level
• fresh water, drinking water
• underground watercourse, water veins
• underground water streams, headwaters

Cavity detection

Hidden cavities and hollow spaces have a rather poor electrical conductivity and measuring its resistivity will result in high apparent resistivity values. The capability of cavity detection is useful for

• archaeologists, historians
• treasure hunters
• geotechnical engineering
• military services
• building contractors

Detectable subsurface cavities could be

• caves, tunnels
• galleries and manholes
• chambers, sepulchers, tombs
• bunkers, vaults, cellars, rooms
