An interpretation method is suggested for apparent resistivity profiles over a medium of continuously varying resistivity. The medium is replaced by an equivalent laminated system of constant resistivity in each layer and evaluated by superposition. The approximation facilitates detailed subsurface profiling as required for underground storage projects or water infiltration schemes.
