A strategy to extract information from airborne gamma ray spectrometry for applications in plant-based industries

摘要

Radiometrics is a successful natural resource tool; however technology captive projects of the past need to progress to on-ground decisions. This paper has focussed on developing a strategy to bridge this gap. The data to decision strategy involves a four stage process. (1) Be aware of the strengths and limitations of the technology; (2) match the data to the application, (3) target research with an application focus; and (4) evaluate the value of the geophysical information in decision making. This approach was used to bridge the gap between the gamma radiometric technology and ‘on-ground’ decisions in plant based industries.
