  • Publication number: 20250158914
    Abstract: A computer-implemented system, computer-implemented method, and computer-program product includes a dynamic data packet routing service receiving, via a network, one or more cascading parameters and inputs for constructing a cascading data packet and identifying a set of networked entity nodes arranged in a defined order, where the one or more cascading parameters includes routing sequence parameters and one or more temporal threshold parameters; configuring, by a microservice, the cascading data packet based on the one or more cascading parameters, where the configuring includes encoding for the cascading data packet a set of dynamic routing instructions based on the routing sequence parameters and a set of temporal thresholds based on the one or more temporal threshold parameters; storing, to a memory, the cascading data packet and the configuration of the cascading data packet; and transmitting the cascading data packet to a first networked entity node of the set.

  • Patent number: 6636046
    Abstract: A miniaturized electrical resistivity (ER) probe based on a known current-voltage (I-V) electrode structure, the Wenner array, is designed for local (point) measurement. A pair of voltage measuring electrodes are positioned between a pair of current carrying electrodes. The electrodes are typically about 1 cm long, separated by 1 cm, so the probe is only about 1 inch long. The electrodes are mounted to a rigid tube with electrical wires in the tube and a sand bag may be placed around the electrodes to protect the electrodes. The probes can be positioned in a borehole or on the surface. The electrodes make contact with the surrounding medium. In a dual mode system, individual probes of a plurality of spaced probes can be used to measure local resistance, i.e. point measurements, but the system can select different probes to make interval measurements between probes and between boreholes.
