Before geophysical surveying an entire munitions response site, the project team conducts a site-specific geophysical prove-out (GPO) to test, evaluate, and demonstrate the geophysical systems. The team analyzes the information collected during the prove-out to select or confirm a geophysical system that meets the performance requirements for the geophysical survey. Geophysical Prove-Outs for Munitions Response Projects (UXO-3, 2004) introduces the purpose and scope of geophysical prove-outs, provides examples of goals and associated objectives, and presents detailed information needed to evaluate the design, construction, implementation, and reporting.
