    • Electrical resistivity tomography (ERT) data collected within and adjacent to the Little Wind River, Riverton, WY, USA

    Metadata Updated: January 20, 2026

    The electrical conductivity of the earth is used to help infer lithological and pore fluid properties. Various geophysical methods can provide estimates of the distribution of below ground electrical conductivity, with each method having certain limitations. This data release presents raw and processed results from 9 electrical resistivity tomography (ERT) transects collected from August 24, 2017 to August 28, 2017. The raw data include instrument files from the AGI SuperSting R8 unit (.stg and .crs fils) as well as some electrode positions from those lines recorded with a handheld GPS to help georeferenced the lines. Processed data include data that has been combined (where appropriate), filtered, and converted to a format suitable for inversion with the included R2 v. 3.1 program (Andrew Binley, Lancaster University). Visualization toolkit (.vtk) files of the inverted electrical conductivity are included that have been georeferenced to UTM zone 12T coordinates with elevations in reference to mean sea level. These files are suitable for viewing with Paraview software.
