Abstract
Geophysical anomalies in an area or region can be detected, characterized, or otherwise mapped using a combination of environmental and geophysical sensor data acquired using a vehicle, which may be a remotely operated or autonomously controlled unmanned vehicle. Anomalies are detected by processing the environmental sensor data and geophysical sensor data using artificial intelligence algorithms, programs, or models. As an example, the artificial intelligence algorithms, programs, or models can include machine learning algorithms, programs, or models. The environmental sensor data are processed to generate control parameters for controlling the acquisition and/or processing of the geophysical sensor data optimized for environmental conditions in the area.
