Georadar Survey

Georadar, or GPR (Ground Penetrating Radar) is a non-invasive system for surveying the subsoil, suitable for modest depths and based on the reflection of electromagnetic waves. This technique is mostly used in underground utility investigations, including manholes and pipes, for the identification and mapping of existing installations, the identification of the geometric structure of foundations, in archaeological research and the identification of masonry structures and cavities. Maximum depth and the consequent degree of obtainable detail varies according to the frequency used. A low frequency enables information to be collected at grater depths, whereas high frequencies are desirable when aiming for better resolution for surface targets.
