Syscal Terra

The Syscal Terra is a next-generation resistivity & induced polarization (IP) data acquisition system engineered for deep insight and field flexibility. With 20 galvanically isolated channels, it enables seamless support for 1D through 3D surveys, profiling, roll-along methods, waterborne setups, and long-term autonomous monitoring.

Why Choose Syscal Terra?

• Powerful & flexible: Full-waveform IP recording with the choice of 50 % or 100 % duty cycles opens the door to richer subsurface characterization.

• User-friendly interface: A high-resolution color touchscreen lets you oversee apparent resistivity, inspect 20 simultaneous IP decay curves, and name files with a virtual keyboard — all in real time.

• Robust for all conditions: Designed for rugged deployment, it operates from –20 °C to +70 °C and balances compactness, durability, and portability.

• Battery options built in: Comes with a removable internal Li-ion battery module (4 × 96 Wh) that you can take out for air shipping or swap with external power sources to reduce system weight.

• Scalable & synchronized: Use multiple Terra units in master-slave or multi-Tx configurations synchronized by GPS clocks, enabling large-scale 3D surveys or simultaneous measurements without cables.

• Versatile operation modes:
  • Full resistivity and IP acquisition
  • Receiver-only mode with an external transmitter
  • Dynamic mode for continuous acquisition (land, river, or marine)
  • Monitoring mode with programmable acquisition schedules and automatic FTP upload

Under the hood, you’ll find a 24-bit receiver with exceptional accuracy, selectable filters, and optional full-waveform time series recording. All measurements are stored in a single data file and can be retrieved via USB, WiFi (through any browser), or directly from a computer.

The Syscal Terra redefines field geophysics — offering power, precision, and adaptability in one rugged, yet compact package.
