Abstract
This report provides statistics on worldwide use of geophysical methods in 1976. Data were obtained primarily through a survey questionnaire which was mailed out to more than 500 companies, government agencies, and universities that use geophysical techniques for petroleum exploration, oceanography, engineering, mining, geothermal exploration, and groundwater exploration. Response to the survey was excellent, providing detailed information on all types of airborne, land, and marine surveys. Computer processing was utilized in tabulating the statistics to provide detailed information on methods used, line‐miles covered, and average costs. Data not supplied on the questionnaire for costs or line‐mileage were estimated on the basis of worldwide averages to produce a more comprehensive report.
