Abstract
A method for calibration of electromagnetic induction measurement systems. The method includes transmitting, by at least one transmitter of an electric induction measurement system, a magnetic field as a primary signal, wherein the transmitting the magnetic field as the primary signal triggers a current in the soil which current generates a secondary signal, and recording, by a receiver of the electric induction measurement system, the secondary signal at each of at least two heights of the receiver relative to a soil to be measured in order to create an input vector that is a combination of soil properties and environmental properties that contain the properties of the electric induction measurement system, that contains a dataset of n conductivity values of n layers, and that creates, as a starting value, an initial value vector. The initial value vector includes assumptions and apparent electrical conductivities for m measurement heights.
