The Earth’s subsurface holds natural resources which are fundamental for regional development. Obtaining accurate images of water, mineral and energy sources deep below the surface is a key step for their management and exploitation. Imaging is a branch of geophysics that allows us to obtain detailed maps, or images, of the Earth’s interior, this is achieved through the analysis of the deformations and electromagnetic fields measured at the surface, similar to tomographic imaging of the interior of the human body. This analysis is carried out by complex algorithms running in high-performance computers. The transborder region between France and Spain hosts five top research institutions working on the three main topics that comprise the field of Subsurface Imaging: Geophysics, Applied Mathematics and Computer Science. The PIXIL project is a multidisciplinary, scientific and technological partnership across the national boundary, that aims to develop beyond-state-of-the-art tools that scrutinize the subsurface, with a special focus on encouraging the use of geothermal energy in the region. The project will contribute to establishing the Pyrenees and neighbouring regions as a major technological hub in subsurface characterization during the next two years, and this achievement expects to boost wealth and employment for the region, related to the extraction and management of natural resources.
