Airborne Magnetometers
To address industry requirements, we introduced the state-of-the-art Potassium, the highest sensitivity magnetometer / gradiometer airborne system commercially available. It also features a number of other benefits, including maximum gradient tolerance and more.
Our solution is based on a unique optically pumped Potassium sensor technology that offers an order of magnitude increase in sensitivity over other systems. It also provides:
Reduced “heading” errors
Highest absolute accuracy
Decreased maintenance costs
These advantages make Potassium a key solution for your next airborne installation, including helicopter, fixed wing and UAV platforms.
We have developed many special units including one, two, and three sensor arrays such as its Tri-Directional Helicopter bird with Potassium sensors at the tips of a triangle. Shown below, the vertical Gradiometer and the Tri-Directional bird.
Horizontal gradient measurements are also increasingly popular for providing details about the lateral extent of subsurface anomalies located between survey lines. The Tri-Directional bird is an optimal solution for determining lateral extents.

Vertical gradients can assist significantly in identifying geologic/structural contacts and Near surface targets (UXO). Two-sensor birds such as the one shown in the first image on this page are ideal for this type of work.
We have a number of Fixed Wing clients–attracted to Potassium with its valued features and ability to acquire the highest quality data from an airborne platform.
The company is able to put together a fixed wing solution for your aircraft–including sensors, electronics, cabling, and training. We also provide an STC certificate, if required. Fixed wing surveys take advantage of the lack of microphony of the sensor, ultra-sensitivity and lack of heading error.

High quality data are only obtained after reliable, accurate application of base station corrections. With us, you have the choice of working with two versions–the Overhauser or Potassium base stations. Both offer excellent value and a range of sensitivities that accommodates typical to highest resolution specifications. These implementations share a number of advanced features:
Precise time synchronization of field and base station units using a built-in GPS option.
Flexible scheduling.
Manual start-up.
