Ground Penetrating Radar (GPR)

MHS leverages Ground Penetrating Radar (GPR) as a powerful tool for obtaining non-invasive images of the shallow sub-surface. Particularly beneficial when precise artifact positioning is the goal, GPR responds to variations in electrical properties, measuring radar impulses triggered by changes in rock properties or the presence of foreign objects within a consistent medium. The strength of reflections corresponds to the difference in dialectic constants, providing valuable insights. Operating within the frequency range of 10MHz to 2.6GHz, GPR employs high-frequency radio waves to transmit electromagnetic energy waves into sub-surface materials. These waves reflect, refract, and scatter differently based on the material's permittivity, enabling the creation of cross-sectional maps of interfaces. Radar reflections are especially noticeable at points of abrupt changes in moisture content, grain size, porosity, or soil texture. This technique proves cost-effective while delivering high-resolution results, effectively defining soil stratigraphy, locating bedrock interfaces, identifying fracture zones, and even mapping groundwater surfaces. It shines under frozen conditions and plays a vital role in various applications. GPR aids in estimating water volumes, studying underwater depths, and revealing sub-bottom stratigraphy. It's also invaluable for locating buried structures such as tanks, utility corridors, and archaeological features. Additionally, GPR is utilized in forensic investigations to identify concealed structures and artifacts. MHS harnesses the capabilities of GPR to its fullest, offering a comprehensive solution for diverse industries and purposes.
