Interpex Ix1d V350 -
To truly appreciate the software, one must understand its operational logic.
Click Invert > Automatic. The v350 engine iterates, reducing the RMS misfit. Watch the convergence plot—v350 provides real-time feedback. A typical final RMS under 5% is excellent for field data.
Leaking landfills create conductive plumes (high total dissolved solids). A baseline survey using IX1D v350 can track a plume’s lateral extent by comparing soundings upgradient and downgradient. The software’s sensitivity to thin conductive layers (e.g., 1 to 2 meters of leachate) is remarkable. interpex ix1d v350
Even great software can be misused. Here are traps to avoid:
| Pitfall | v350 Solution | |--------|----------------| | Equivalence (different models fit same data) | Use the “Model Statistics” option to see parameter correlations | | Static shift | Apply manual resistivity adjustment or fix surface layer | | Starting model bias | Run inversion from 10 random starting models | | Noisy short spacings | Weight individual data points during inversion | To truly appreciate the software, one must understand
Post-inversion, IX1D v350 provides:
Export the interpreted model as an ASCII text file for import into GIS (e.g., Surfer or ArcGIS) for contouring. Export the interpreted model as an ASCII text
Compared to earlier IX1D versions (v2, v3.0), v350 brought:
To appreciate the software, let’s walk through a typical project:
