What is GPR Ground Penetrating Radar – A geophysical method used to investigate the sub-surface or medium it is applied to. It uses high-frequency electromagnetic waves in the UHF/VHF frequency range of the radio spectrum. These high-frequency signals are transmitted from the system into the ground or medium and the return or reflected signal is… Continue reading Ground Penetrating Radar Explained
