- Prevent utility damage on construction sites
- Excellent method for large sites or sensitive areas
Can accommodate projects needing a quick turnaround
Can be used in forensic investigations
What is ground penetrating radar?
We typically work with:
GPR non-destructively locates subsurface targets and is an essential tool for damage prevention on construction sites. It is used prior to digging, trenching, or conducting site assessments. It can also be used in forensic investigations. It is also successful in a variety of applications such as locating drain fields, USTs, and non-metallic utilities (A/C, PVC water mains, terracotta pipelines).
