Is ArcGIS Pro being used as a platform for processing and viewing gravity and magnetics raster data, commonly referred to as potential fields data? These are used in mining and oil & gas. I didn't see any prior posts, perhaps this will serve as a placeholder for future activity.

@PeterWang I'm not aware of ArcGIS Pro being used to process gravity and magnetics survey data as that is typically the specialist activity of geophysics systems.  However the display of results is certainly possible and there are Esri partners like Seequent with their Target for ArcGIS Pro that enable these workflows in combination with drilling data in 2D & 3D (see https://www.seequent.com/products-solutions/geosoft-target/target-for-arcgis-pro/).

Thanks Paul, I found some videos out there about Seequent Target for ArcGIS Pro. Frankly, I think there has been money left on the table because Geological / Geophysical Oil & Gas software publishers have been re-inventing (at a high cost) basic functions like gridding, mapping when they could have been leveraging ArcGIS Desktop. All of their customers have ArcGIS anyway.
