Good drinking water can be obtained from fracture zones in hard rock. But drilling without a site investigation often leads to deeper and less productive wells. Effective water development programs must include a carefully conducted water prospecting survey.

The technologies used by IDEA4WATER Inc. include EMS (Electromagnetic Surveying) and VLF (Very Low Frequency). We are world leaders in Water Prospecting (Water Locating) because of our use of these two technologies together to insure the best information possible for our customers. The results obtained from using these state-of-the-art technologies are convincingly consistent.

What is "EMS"? Simple. This process uses electrical and magnetic fields to identify near-surface structures through a variation in responses. By mapping these fields we can concentrate on specific structures to narrow our search area.

What is VLF? These are (very low frequency) radio waves our government uses to communicate with submarines. When these waves meet with a saturated body (i.e. water), there is a secondary signal created. This secondary signal is the signal we look for when locating water.

Why use both methods? By combining these two technologies we can increase our accuracy (many times finding cross flows) while still keeping our price reasonable.
