The Maxwell CSIRO interface is not part of the standard Maxwell functionality. Users are required to purchase a licence that enables them to interface the modules with Maxwell. All users who purchase the CSIRO interface are given access via their existing website login for convenience. Furthermore, EMIT actively maintains the suite of CSIRO applications, correcting errors and adding additional functionality in response to user feedback and requests.
Maxwell allows the user to define, display and edit model parameters through drag and drop mouse operation. Layered earth, thin-sheet, prism and mesh models can be built in Maxwell’s 3-D visualisation environment.
- Requires Maxwell version 5 or later
- Ground system configurations tested include drill-hole, fixed, coincident and in-loop systems and MT
- Airborne modules can model any frequency or time domain system. The transmitter is represented as a magnetic dipole for computational efficiency. Configurations tested include Geotem (dB/dt, B), VTEM, GTK/BGS wingtip, Tempest, Dighem, Spectrem, Aerotem and shipborne VCP broadside systems
- All inversion routines are based on the damped SVD decomposition method (as per Grendl)
- CSIRO module.txt files are provided which provide full details on the model parameters
