Geophysical surveys are vital for mineral exploration, geological studies, and analysis worldwide. Advanced geophysical equipment has improved aerial data quality, but this study focuses on how soil moisture, atmospheric humidity, and soil variations affect gamma spectrometric data collected during aerial surveys. The findings show that these factors impact measurements of uranium, potassium, and radon, making location comparisons uncertain, especially in areas with varying terrain. To ensure safe geophysical flight operations, adopting a proactive approach is crucial, including regular risk assessments, frequent safety checks, and open communication among pilots, operators, and ground crews. This research contributes to aviation safety knowledge, particularly for low-level geophysical flights.
