why use GPR?

Ground Radar provides a non-intrusive and non-destructive method of surveying the Subsurface and Concrete Imaging. Not only is Ground Radar a highly cost effective non-disruptive technique, it is also a rapid means of obtaining subsurface information. It’s many advantages include:

• Metallic and non-metallic utilities can be detected.
• GPR is non-disruptive and benign making it safe for use in public spaces.
• Surveys can be completed quickly, thus are more cost-effective. Large areas can be surveyed in a day.
• Only single-sided access is needed making it ideal for surveying floors, walls, decks, slabs, tunnels and balconies.
• GPR can provide a high-resolution continuous survey data that can be interpreted qualitatively, in real time.
• Faster, safer and lower cost than radiography (X-ray).
• The combined software utilisation of post-processing filters, small survey paths and the 3-D function enables a clear interpretation and presentation.
• The final report is user-friendly. This affords the client an understanding of the investigation results that can be presented at an in-house level.
