Radar is a useful tool with familiar uses such as detecting aircraft and observing weather. It also has some less known applications, such as a technology known as ground-penetrating radar (GPR).

One of the most interesting is [Glenn Powers]’ Open Ground Penetrating Radar. It’s exactly what the title says: an open-source radar system that can see into the Earth for less than $500.

We offer state-of-the-art capabilities in subsurface (ice/soil) RADAR measurements in a man-portable, multi-static, FM-CW testbed systems. We test different GPR designs for ice penetration and ...

Take the examples offered by Matt Aston of Ground Penetrating Radar Systems Inc. (GPRS), located in Toledo, Ohio, which uses ground penetrating technology to provide critical information on ...

Antennas used with ground penetrating radar (GPR) come in different shapes and sizes. The largest antennas typically radiate the lower frequencies necessary to detect the deepest targets.
