Interpex Ix1d V350 !full!
Data can be created or edited directly via a spreadsheet interface.
Interpex has been a staple name in geophysical software for decades. The IX1D v350 is the latest iteration (as of recent years) of their classic 1D resistivity/IP forward modeling and inversion program. It’s designed primarily for geophysicists, engineering geologists, and hydrogeologists who need to interpret Vertical Electrical Soundings (VES) – specifically Schlumberger, Wenner, and dipole-dipole arrays.
Limitations and Considerations Prospective buyers should be aware of:
Understanding how the software processes geophysical data requires looking at its dual-mode mathematical processing engine.

For marine EM work, a specialized variant handles inline E, crossline H, broadside E, joint inline‑E/crossline‑H soundings, step‑on/step‑off or impulse current sources, and even anisotropic resistivity models.
Field data can be collected using various electrode configurations. IX1D v350 is exceptionally flexible, supporting all major DC resistivity arrays, including:
Analyze the sensitivity of the model to ensure the solution is reliable. Conclusion
Supports both Ridge Regression (least-squares) and Occam’s inversion for smooth model generation. Data can be created or edited directly via
The software natively resolves vertical electrical soundings (VES) to distinguish subsurface layer boundaries based on their electrical resistance.

and reduce them to simplified layered models for comparison with surface data. User Experience Insights Compatibility:
When a user possesses pre-existing geologic constraints—such as a known water table depth from an exploratory borehole or an exact clay layer resistance—they can toggle . These flags lock designated layer thicknesses or specific resistivity values, forcing the computational inversion engine to resolve unknown variables around those fixed, accurate constraints. Well Log Interactive Simplification For marine EM work, a specialized variant handles
Beyond resistivity, the software can interpret Induced Polarization (IP) data , a crucial capability for detecting disseminated minerals, clay layers, or certain types of contaminants. IX1D supports IP measurements in various forms, such as PFE (Percent Frequency Effect) , chargeability in milliseconds (msec) , or phase in milliradians (mrad) .
