Special Issue Information
Dear Colleagues,
Potential field data are widely used in the search for economic mineral deposits. The data are often extensively processed by a variety of sophisticated techniques as part of the project, and the development of new techniques is a very active field of research worldwide. This Special Issue will focus on all aspects of technique development, such as hardware (e.g., drones, magnetometer/gravimeter technology), forward, inverse, and semi-automatic interpretation algorithms, new AI technology, etc. Featured manuscripts will describe new techniques in sufficient detail for the reader to duplicate the work, and applications to real data will be presented.
