RESOURCE ESTIMATION SYSTEM AND RESOURCE ESTIMATION METHOD

摘要

Exploration of resources of the bottom of water such as a seafloor based on a self-potential is accurately performed. A computer 70 of a resource estimation system 1 includes an estimation information acquisition unit 71 that acquires potential information indicating potentials of a plurality of potential electrodes 21 having a predetermined positional relationship measured at a plurality of positions in water, a noise removal unit 73 that removes noise contained in the measured potentials by performing principal component analysis or independent component analysis using the potentials, and a resource estimation unit 74 that estimates the presence of the resources in the bottom of water based on the potential from which the noise has been removed.
