Archaeological exploration

Revealing the hidden

Magnetometry is now a key tool in archaeological research. This non-destructive method detects magnetic anomalies in the ground, enabling the localization of hidden structures such as foundations, trenches or burial grounds. The variety of systems – from hand-held single sensors to vehicle-based multi-channel systems – enables efficient and centimeter-accurate prospecting of small to large areas.

VALLON's fluxgate magnetometers transform measurement data into detailed magnetic maps of the subsurface. These reveal hidden settlement structures, production sites, burial grounds and historical irrigation systems. This enables efficient planning of targeted excavations, thus contributing to the preservation of our cultural heritage.

Precise measurement technology for archaeological discoveries

Detection solutions

The centerpiece of our magnetometer systems is the VSM4 digital probe. With a compensation range of ±20,000 nT (VSM4) or ±300,000 nT (VSM4plus), it is suitable for the most demanding measurement tasks. The modern tension band technology guarantees lasting measurement accuracy without recalibration. The VSM4 is compatible with all VALLON systems and can be used in a modular fashion from a single-channel system to an 8-channel system.
