Abstract
SUMMARY VPem3D performs 3D inversion on time-integrated (resistive limit) data. Conversion to resistive limits delivers a massive increase in speed since the TEM inverse problem reduces to a quasi-magnetic problem. The time evolution of the decay is lost during the conversion, but the information can be largely recovered by constructing a starting model from CDIs or 1D inversions. We have carried out preliminary inversion of VTEM dBz/dt data from the Forrestania EM test range. The inversion places a weak conductor at a depth and location consistent with the known target. Run time is a few minutes, a fraction of that required by a full 3D EM inversion.
