Rapid evaluation of multifrequency EMI data to characterize buried structures at a historical Jesuit Mission in Argentina

We present results from a geophysical prospection at a historical Jesuit Mission, located in San Ignacio (Misiones-Argentina), declared World Monument some years ago. We studied different sectors looking for buried structures; the total area under study covered 36 ha. In this work we will show the r...
