March 2013: Instrument calibration system
11-03-2013
GeoMEM completed a software development project involving:
Control of power supply units (via GPIB I/F boards)
Reading magnetometers (via proprietary board/driver system)
Reading and control an instrument (via proprietory control language)
The software application was developed in C# in Visual Studio 2010 with some conversion of code from earlier Visual Basic 6 software.
We originally intended to use Windows Forms for the user interface, but changed to Windows Presentation Foundation (WPF) utilising Caliburn.Micro for better screen display and user interaction.
In the final stages moved to VS2012 / .NET 4.5 to utilise the power of the async/await methods for communications processes.
Extensive use of Unit Tests (xUnit) for most code to help ensure product quality and ease of further development/maintenance.
Deployment for testing and debugging was made using the MicroSoft ClickOnce technology for quick and easy updating as new versions were made available.
Throughout the project a Mercurial/ Bitbucket source control system was used to ensure code and development safety.
This was an interesting and challenging project using many of GeoMEMs specialist skills:
Updating from "legacy" code
Serial type communication with various devices
Specific data processing/calculations
User interface design
Unit tests
Remote installation and testing
If you have a specialised software development project in mind - please contact us to discuss. Total commercial confidentiality is assured at all stages.

May 2012: Historical Borehole Survey re-processing
Client required reprocessing of borehole survey raw data from about twenty, 30 year old surveys for a initial evaluation of a possible exploration project.
This involved:
Entering and re-formatting survey data
Merging some multiple data sets into single survey
Adapting existing survey software to work with old format data
Reprocessing entire set of borehole surveys using adapted software
Providing results in tabular and graph form.
Providing report on the expected accuracy and precision of these historical surveys.
If you need old or recent borehole data re-processed or analysed, especially for the FlexIT SmartTool, Reflex Maxibor or Reflex EMS systems please contact GeoMEM to discuss and obtain a quotation.
