Using
Ground Penetrating Radar Applications
Let me
clarify that, I like to read interesting facts on the internet as a means of
expanding my sphere of knowledge. What's the point of reading facts that I
would probably never use? Last week I landed on a geology site and discovered a
particularly interesting article on ground penetrating radars; as
A ground
penetrating radar can be likened to radiation seismology. This doesn't mean
much to people who haven't studied geology or even taken a moment to find out
about it, so let Steve Price explain.
Ground
penetrating radar is a method of determining whether or not objects are buried
underneath the surface sand, rock or ice. It should be noted that this ground
penetrating radar (GPR) can also detect cracks in the substructure and changes
in material.
Ground
penetration radar procedures can be applied in various disciplines beyond
geology. In this earth science it is used to discover what is lying below the
bedrock; however, when used in engineering and environmental disciplines it is
used to define contamination in landfills.
GPR can
also be used on archaeological sites and in cemeteries for mapping purposes;
whereas law enforcement will utilize the method in determining where illegal
graves and buried evidence may be found. The military will use this method as a
means of finding landmines.
In
conclusion, 'surfing' the internet can be time-consuming; but it can lead to an
understanding of different types of applications like the useful ground
penetrating radar.
