About GEO.BÜRO Dr. TARASCONI
GEO.BÜRO Dr. TARASCONI was founded in Fürth in 2002 with a focus on geotechnics and geophysics. The geophysics division has been consistently expanded over the years and today represents the core area of activity. The office conducts non-destructive geophysical investigations using geomagnetics, ground-penetrating radar (GPR), geoelectrical methods (resistance mapping, VES, ERT) and electromagnetic induction (FDEM). Fields of application include, among others, archaeological prospection and heritage conservation, structural and component diagnostics, void and object detection, geohazards such as sinkholes, karst and landslides, environment and contaminated sites, raw materials geology and hydrogeology. In addition, compaction control via dynamic probing and static as well as dynamic plate load tests is offered; for planning, documentation, monitoring and remote sensing, drones (UAS) with high-resolution cameras are used. Clients include municipal and state authorities, engineering and planning offices, property developers, landfill operators, construction companies, operators of quarries and pits as well as research institutions and excavation firms. The work follows the geophysics standard service profiles of the BDG and the EAC Guidelines.

Methods and Techniques
Ground-penetrating radar
Measures reflections of electromagnetic waves at layer boundaries, voids or objects in soil and structural components.
Geomagnetics (magnetometry)
Detects anomalies in the magnetic properties of the subsurface, such as archaeological traces, backfills or embedded objects.
Geoelectrical resistance measurement
Suitable for determining rock changes, water content and voids, from resistance mapping to multi-electrode geoelectrics.
Electromagnetic induction
Contactless mapping of conductivity and magnetic susceptibility in three depth ranges.
Drone technology
For planning, documentation, monitoring, remote sensing and archaeological prospection with high-resolution cameras.
