Study of the subsoil using high resolution 2d and 3d electrical tomography in two areas of the Visigothic Iberian-Roman city Begastri, T.M. from Cehegín (Murcia)
Abstract
The aim of the electrical tomography research project in the city of Begastri was to demonstrate the great possibilities offered by this geophysical technique for the detection in the subsoil of the constructions carried out in the section of quaternary materials existing in the upper part of the hill. Several configurations have been used resulting in a wide range of depths and resolutions in the results, allowing us to detect buried structures with their geometry and state, detecting a significant discontinuity of these structures at 0.75 meters which represents an interesting qualitative leap in the use of the electrical tomography.
