Brief Review
The Society of Exploration Geophysicistsof Japan (SEGJ) was established in May
1948 with the objectives to promote thescience and technology of geophysicalexploration as well as to encourage mutualcommunication among the members.
The first issue of the journal"Butsuri-Tanko (GeophysicalExploration)" was publishedjust a month after theestablishment. The journal
was renamed "Butsuri-Tansa"
in 1986. For the convenient distribution ofacademic information in this field, thejournal was digitalized in 2017.
SEGJ was reorganized as a generalincorporated association in 2001, and thenas a public interest incorporated associationin 2013. SEGJ has been responsible inpromoting exploration activities andinformation dissemination in public as well.
And SEGJ now reinforces the activities forthe disaster prevention and control andmaintenance of social infrastructure as thepublic service.
