APPLIED GEOLOGY

  • Geological base mapping: field survey, remote sensing, laboratory analysis, geological geo-databases design and creation, editing and print of geological maps and explanatory notes
  • Analysis of geological, geomorphological and environmental conditions related to the selection and study of optimal routes for roads, railroads, hydraulic pipes, power lines and other linear infrastructures. Geological, structural and slope stability surveys for tunnels, dams, bridges and other installations. Research of building material, inventories for quarrying activity
  • Geotechnical studies for building, infrastructures and industrial installations
  • Research and analysis of appropriate sites for dumps of urban and industrial waste
  • Geology and geomorphology for Catchment Plans, studies of fluvial morphology for the protection from floods and erosion
  • Studies of landslides and multi-temporal analysis of their evolution; slope stability mapping in support of projects for specific infrastructures
  • Terrestrial photogrammetric surveys of sub-vertical rock walls and geo-structural analysis for the individuation of potential instability

HYDROGEOLOGY

  • Regional studies, geological and geomorphological surveys, aimed at the research and evaluation of surface and groundwater resources; fracture analysis for the evaluation of secondary permeability and as a guide for further geophysical investigation for the research of groundwater in igneous and carbonate rocks
  • Water points inventory; geological assistance to drilling and testing
  • Geological and geomorphological surveys for the location and evaluation of potential reservoirs; selection and study of dam construction sites, analysis of the catchment area
  • Selection of the layout for aqueducts and hydraulic pipelines; analysis of geological and slope stability conditions of the route
  • Land use and land cover mapping in support of the evaluation of the water balance and needs
