Ground Penetrating Radar
Butterworth-Heinemann Ltd (Verlag)
978-0-08-102216-0 (ISBN)
The first chapter introduces the underlying physics and explains the formation of signal patterning. The next two chapters explain the significance of wavelengths for target detection, probing depths and resolution, and demonstrating the variety of signal presentation. Chapter four discusses why survey results are affected by water and air in the soil, and how this may affect depth readings.
Additional chapters discuss a variety of methods for velocity calibration and suggests where they may be useful, challenging soil conditions and potential problem environments, data processing and a suite of useful techniques, amongst other important topics.
The book gives a clear and formative guidance on understanding the critical factors in using GPR, as well as a checklist of surveying considerations.
Erica Carrick Utsi is the former director of GPR manufacturer Utsi Electronics Ltd and former Chairman of the European GPR Association. She is internationally experienced in most applications of GPR, specializing in new engineering adaptations, the maintenance and conservation of historical buildings, training, forensic searches, and research. She has served on the International Scientific Committees for several biennial International Conferences on GPR, International Workshops on Advanced GPR, and the steering committees of academic research projects. Her forensic search experience includes locating WW2 mass graves in the Ukraine, generating evidence for the Irish Mother and Baby Homes Commission, missing person and security searches. Her current work at EMC Radar Consulting includes ongoing research at the royal abbeys of Westminster in London and Dunfermline (Scotland). She is also the author of a wide range of GPR papers and co-author with David Daniels of GPR case histories and known physical principles (2013, DOI: 10.1109/IWAGPR.2013.6601507).
