About Alan Morgan, MSc

Geophysicist focused on potential fields — building practical tools that bridge fieldwork and quantitative interpretation.

From the 1990s to MD Field Mapper Pro

I started metal detecting in the 1990s — long before LiDAR on phones or affordable GNSS. Those early days in parks, farm fields, and old homesteads taught me to think like a surveyor: control your search pattern, document targets, and learn the ground. MD Field Mapper Pro continues that idea — disciplined mapping, timestamps, and QC for every sweep.

Education

• MSc in Geoscience (applied geophysics)
• BSc in Geology

Professional background

Two-plus decades across oil & gas, mining, and geothermal, specializing in gravity and magnetic methods. Experience spans basin‑scale interpretation and sub‑basalt challenges to near‑surface mapping for minerals and karst evaluation. I’ve led interpretation workflows and collaborated with multidisciplinary teams to tie potential‑fields signatures to structure, alteration, and fluid pathways.
