The Optical Televiewer provides continuous logs of oriented, high resolution unwrapped video images of borehole walls. Further processing allows for the computation and
display of standard information on fractures and other geological features.
Unlike the Acoustic Televiewer, the Optical Televiewer can be run in both air filled and (clear) water filled holes. The sonde can be supplied with only a data modem and acquisition software if no other Geovista sondes are required at the time.
