FAQ's

Ground Penetrating Radar (GPR) scanning is a non-destructive testing method that uses electromagnetic pulses to create images of subsurface features. These images show the location, size, and shape of buried objects and structures, like pipes, cables, foundations, and even archaeological artifacts.

GPR transmits electromagnetic pulses into the ground. These pulses travel through the soil and reflect back when they encounter changes in the ground’s electrical properties, like buried objects or different soil layers. The reflected signals are then processed to create a 2D or 3D image of the subsurface.

  • Non-destructive: GPR does not require excavation, making it ideal for preserving existing structures and minimizing environmental impact.

  • Accurate and Detailed: GPR provides high-resolution images of subsurface features, offering valuable information for planning and decision-making.

  • Versatile: GPR can be used for various applications, including utility mapping, archaeological surveys, foundation inspection, and environmental studies.

  • Cost-effective: GPR is often a more cost-effective solution compared to traditional excavation methods.

  • Time-saving: GPR scans can be conducted quickly, reducing the time required for site investigation.

The cost of GPR scanning depends on the project’s scope, the complexity of the survey, and the time required.

GPR scanning is a non-invasive, non-destructive technique that does not pose any risks to human health or the environment.

GPR was developed in the 1930s as a tool for measuring the thickness of glaciers. It became more affordable for widespread use in the mid-1980s due to technological advancements.

The depth that ground-penetrating radar (GPR) can reach depends on various factors, including the type of ground and the frequency of the radar waves. Under ideal conditions like dry sandy soils, GPR can penetrate up to about 10 meters (33 feet). In materials with high resistance, such as ice or dry granite, it can reach even hundreds of meters. However, in moist or clay-rich soils, penetration may be limited to just a few centimeters.
