For a EU project we are doing a geophysical, seismic, survey near Psczczyna in Poland. This small city is in between Katowice and the Czech and Slovakian border. The measurements are done in a gravel quarry with seismic measuring equipment from TNO (NL) and a huge vibro-truck from DMT (Germany).
At arrival we immediately started working. The weather is miraculously ok (for March), about 15 degrees Celsius, with sun and a blue sky; generally, the weather at this time of year is about minus 10 with loads of snow.
The background shows a pump (it is an old Dutch one!).
The surveylocation, the gravel pit, as seen from the top. You cannot see the area of research, but the reflection from the sun is beautiful.
My colleage Chris is always grumpy
And colleague Vincent is always cheerful!

Colleague Oene makes lunch: pigfat-sandwich. In Holland 'not done', in Poland a delicatesse.
The Vibrotruck on its transporter. The size of this thing is incredible!
