Summary:This article presents for the first time the advantages of performing soil resistivity measurements with electrode arrangements different than in a straight-line. The obtained results evidence several benefits in common challenging field situations, such as producing longer traverses in a confined area, combining different measurement methodologies in a single traverse, and obtaining more measurement points than for a single array configuration.
