Interpex Ix1d V350

IX1D v3.50 has been a critical tool for identifying and characterizing groundwater resources. Its ability to differentiate subsurface layers based on resistivity makes it invaluable for locating aquifers. In the alluvial aquifers of Pakistan, researchers used the software to convert raw field data into resistivity-versus-depth models, which were then used to map freshwater lenses and identify optimal zones for tubewell installation.

Electrode spacing (e.g., AB/2 for Schlumberger or 'a' spacing for Wenner). Apparent resistivity ( ρarho sub a in ohm-m). Chargeability (m in mV/V or mrad) if processing IP data. Step-by-Step Import Open IX1D v3.50 and select .

What are you mapping? (e.g., groundwater, bedrock depth, contaminant plume) Which electrode array did you use to collect your data?

is a specialized software application designed for the forward modeling and automatic inversion of 1D resistivity sounding data. Unlike full tomography software, IX1D v350 focuses on the vertical variation of resistivity beneath a single point—the "sounding" center.

Interpex Ltd. (Golden, Colorado) officially sunset active development of the v3.x series after 2015, focusing on their cross-platform IX1D v4 and IX2D v4. However, the remains widely circulated in academic and government circles. Why? Because it runs offline, requires no license server, and has a predictable, deterministic behavior—critical for regulatory work where reproducibility is key.

Look at the smooth curve to estimate the number of distinct layers (e.g., a dry topsoil, a wet sand aquifer, and a clay bedrock equals 3 layers).

Commonly used by geologists and engineers, it specializes in , which means it takes electrical or electromagnetic data collected on the surface and "translates" it into a vertical picture of soil and rock layers. Core Functionality

The software excels at converting apparent resistivity curves (measured in ohm-m) into a layered earth model—typically 2 to 7 layers—showing true resistivity and thickness for each layer. This output is essential for:
