Autonomous Geophysical Surveying

Machine precision.
Verified coverage.
Exceptional data quality.

TerraBytes combines autonomous acquisition, RTK positioning, live monitoring and professional processing into a single geophysical survey platform.

Coverage, positioning and instrument performance are monitored throughout acquisition and recorded in the final data package — supporting consistently high quality results on every project.

The problem

Built around the real risks in geophysical survey

High quality geophysical data depends on accurate positioning, consistent coverage and reliable acquisition. Missed areas, excessive overlap, instrument faults and interference can all degrade the final dataset.

TerraBytes continuously monitors positioning quality, coverage, instrument performance and data acquisition throughout the survey — so issues can be identified while the work is still underway, not discovered weeks later in processing.

End to end

From field acquisition to final data package

Every stage is designed to improve consistency, traceability and confidence in the final dataset.

01

Plan

Survey area, route and operating parameters are prepared before acquisition.

02

Acquire

Autonomous RTK-guided vehicles follow repeatable high-precision lines and turns at consistent speed.

03

Monitor

The Operations Centre tracks position, RTK quality, logging and instrument health.

04

Alert

Faults are flagged while work is underway, allowing remote intervention.

05

Process

Survey data is processed in R-12, our in-house suite, into clean, reproducible outputs.

06

Deliver

Clients receive a professional package with coverage records and QA documentation.

Quality assurance

Survey quality should never be an end-of-day surprise

TerraBytes continuously monitors the evidence that matters: where the vehicle has been, whether the instrument is recording correctly, whether RTK quality is holding, and whether coverage is complete.

  • Live vehicle trail and surveyed swath
  • RTK status, satellites and correction age
  • Instrument sample rate and logging state
  • Automatic alerts for potential acquisition issues
  • Remote access for investigation and corrective action
The platform

See the platform working

The TerraBytes autonomous survey platform is built for real field conditions — carrying geophysical instruments across large areas with repeatable positioning, controlled speed and live operational monitoring.

  • Ground-based all-terrain survey vehicle
  • RTK-guided autonomous operation
  • Live telemetry and remote monitoring
  • Designed around coverage verification and data integrity
