The primary goal is to advance knowledge of surface and subsurface Earth processes, with applications in exploration, environmental, and engineering geophysics.
To achieve this objective, the Laboratory focuses on:
- Conducting fundamental and applied multidisciplinary research, with an emphasis on geophysics;
- Developing and modernizing INCDFP’s infrastructure relevant to applied geophysical research;
- Diversifying the range of research and development services offered by INCDFP in Earth Sciences for the private sector;
- Raising public awareness about geohazards and their effects, as well as promoting research findings that contribute to seismic risk mitigation;
- Promoting geosciences and science education through tailored tools and initiatives designed for diverse audiences.
