3D Ground-Penetrating Radar

3D ground-penetrating radar (GPR) is a non-invasive geophysical method, emitting electromagnetic waves into the ground to investigate subsurface structures and materials. Radar pulses are used to create images of the subsurface features such as soil layers, geological formations, and archaeological artefacts.

3D ground-penetrating radar (GPR) is a non-invasive geophysical method, emitting electromagnetic waves into the ground to investigate subsurface structures and materials. Radar pulses are used to create images of the subsurface features such as soil layers, geological formations, and archaeological artefacts.

3D GPR provides a detailed view of subsurface conditions, making it a valuable tool in understanding what lies beneath the surface of an area.

  1. Radar Pulse Emission: The GPR system emits electromagnetic waves (radar pulses) into the ground.
  2. Wave Reflection: When these waves encounter different materials (like soil, rock, water, or buried objects), they are reflected to the surface.
  3. Data Collection: The reflected signals are recorded by the GPR receiver.
  4. 3D Visualisation: Advanced software processes the data to create three-dimensional images of the subsurface features.

How It Works:

  1. Radar Pulse Emission: The GPR system emits electromagnetic waves (radar pulses) into the ground.
  2. Wave Reflection: When these waves encounter different materials (like soil, rock, water, or buried objects), they are reflected to the surface.
  3. Data Collection: The reflected signals are recorded by the GPR receiver.
  4. 3D Visualisation: Advanced software processes the data to create three-dimensional images of the subsurface features.

Applications:

  1. Civil Engineering: Locating underground utilities before construction.
  2. Archaeology: Discovering and mapping ancient structures without excavation.
  3. Environmental Studies: Assessing contamination or changes in soil composition.
  4. Geology: Investigating geological layers and formations.
