Ground penetrating radar (GPR) with a suspended 1 GHz horn antenna was deployed for measurement of soil water contents and dwatj wheat canopy reflections over bare and electrically terminating sutjaces. Sutjace reflection (SR) magnitudes and propagation times (PI) were used to independently calculate bulk soil dielectric constant and soil water contents. Measurements over wheat canopy shows tha...

The detection of embedded object from ground penetrating radar GPR imagery is our goal. The GPR image is a cross sectional slices. The embedded objects are metal and/or plastic type. In many fields demand for visualizing objects scanned as cross sectional slices is growing. This research has many real world applications, such as robotic environments, medicine, remote sensing, inspection of indu...

Ž . A combination of ground penetrating radar GPR and seismic imaging has been performed in a gypsum quarry in western Europe. The objective was to localize main cracks and damaged areas inside some of the pillars, which presented indications of having reached stress limits. The GPR imaging was designed from classical profiles with GPR processes and a customized, PC-based image-processing softw...

An integrated approach to ground-penetrating radar interpretation should include not only the standard amplitude slice maps and isosurface renderings but also an analysis of individual reflection traces and adjusted and processed reflection profiles. Only when all those basic datasets are interpreted can the plethora of reflection features at various depths and locations within a grid be unders...

The land mine crisis is all over frightening since there are presently 500 million unexploded, buried mines in about 70 countries. Governments are noticing this situation seriously since land mines are claiming the limbs and lives of civilians’ very day. A multiple of landmine extraction from the data which are obtained from the Ground Penetrating Radar (GPR). Traditional algorithms targets on ...

The objective of this study was to interpret the geomorphic features developed by glaciers at Ashley Schiff Park Preserve and to study whether south part of Ashley Schiff Park Preserve is Hummocky terrain or whether it is just a continuation of folding and faulting process. This required creating a new high-resolution digital elevation model (DEM) based on 2-foot contour interval with 1-meter g...

Over the past several years, ground penetrating radar (GPR) systems have been developed and improved upon to enable the accurate mapping of underground utilities and other structures. Many companies now consider the use of GPR a standard process in their Subsurface Utility Engineering (SUE) investigations. Now systems have been introduced that deploy multiple GPR antennas on one platform to all...

Research has focused on the development of a new integrated approach including ground penetrating radar (GPR) design, GPR signal forward modelling, and GPR signal inversion to estimate the dielectric permittivity and electric conductivity of the shallow subsurface. We propose to use an ultrawide band (UWB) stepped frequency continuous wave (SFCW) radar combined with an offground monostatic tran...
