Resistance survey of a Roman villa at Turkdean. The plot on the right is a conventional greyscale image, showing the high resistance walls in black/dark grey. The image on the left is a relief plot, which simulates the shadows cast by the sun at a certain angle and intensity. Such different display methods can often be useful in aiding the interpretation of the data.
