Upon arrival, we will get a base line reading with EMF detectors. If we are using the M.E.S.A. system, we will take base line readings with it as well as with EMF detectors. We will pay special attention to those areas that have been reported to have had an event take place. This gives us an idea of what the ambient readings are in case of any spikes in EMF or any other fields we may be collecting data on. Usually while conducting the base line readings.
Equipment set up is next on the agenda.
We will usually have a good idea of where to set up devices from our interviews and floor plan or area map. If there are enough investigators on the team, we will set up sub groups to survey specific locations in the home or on the property. These sub groups will maintain and manage the equipment in their area as well as report any findings as they happen. If the investigation is taking place overnight, a rotation may be set up to keep watch over a specific location. If in an outdoor location that allows us to set up camp, sub groups will pitch their tents in their assigned locations.
