Ground Penetrating Radar

We offer GPR to our clients as an effective, easy method to non-destructively locate subsurface targets.

Ground Penetrating Radar works by sending a tiny pulse of energy into a material and recording the strength and time required for the return of any reflected signal. A series of pulses over a single area make up what is called a scan. Reflections are produced whenever the energy pulse enters into a material with different electrical conduction properties (dielectric permittivity) from the material it left. The strength, or amplitude of the reflection is determined by the contrast in the dielectric constants of the two materials.
