- Analysis and basic interpretation of oils and rock extracts.
- An introduction to IGI’s interpretation software (p:IGI+), including creation of graphs and basic interpretations in workshops.
We now provide this course through our new online Moodle platform spread over a period of 5 days. Each topic is made up of a series of short lectures (~20 minutes) and other activities that may include a data workshop, field video, quiz or live discussion session, supported by some additional materials such as reference files and access to IGI’s ig.NET information resource.
