We recommend one supervisor in the field at all times to properly QC the recording operations, base camp operations, and the processing center. Our idea involves two intertwined control positions; one for the recording operations and the other for QC of the information generated. For the recording operations we provide "real time preventive maintenance", with healthy pressure placed on the contractor to allow us to evaluate the operation and correct problems quickly. The QC portion will check field monitors, brute stacks, fold, azimuth, offset, daily assessment of data quality. The combination of both positions allows the project to flow smoothly and quickly.
