Onboard Equipment

The special equipment installed on board consists mainly of three different types of sensors connected to measurement equipment. The following variables are measured:

The Magnetic Total Field is measured using a Scintrex CS-2 sensor, every 7 meter along the path.

The Gamma Radiation is measured using a Gamma Spectrometer and two Sodium Iodine crystals. The measuring points are located every 64 meters along the path.

Electromagnetic field (VLF) is measured with a three-axis sensor that is placed on a protruding boom, at the rear end of the aircraft. These measurements are taken every 32 meters along the path.
