Özet

An adaptive model parameterization methodology is used to develop a two dimensional inversion scheme for the direct current resistivity data. Adaptation is realized by a two stage inversion algorithm. The inverted model after the first stage of inversion is clustered to distinguish the target anomalies and the background. In the second stage a new parameter grid is formed by refining the model cells corresponding to the target bodies or structures. This methodology is well suited for the targets such as archaeological ruins, embedded bodies (tanks, bunkers) and cavities. A test with a synthetic data set is carried out to demonstrate the efficiency of the developed method. Results showed that algorithm is able to recover the subsurface image with more detail in comparison with the inversion results of the regular model mesh.
