2017-328-FA	Electrical Resistivity Tomography (ERT) ERT, also called Electrical Resistivity Imaging (ERI), is a geophysical technique used to image subsurface structures by measuring variations in electrical resistivity. It works by injecting a low-frequency electrical current into the ground through electrodes and measuring the resulting voltage differences. Advanced inversion algorithms convert raw data into resistivity models.
