What is a GPR?

GPR stands for Ground Penetrating Radar, which refers to both a technology and the professionals who operate it. GPR professionals use radar pulses to image the subsurface and are commonly used in fields like construction, archaeology, utility locating, and environmental studies. They help to detect and map objects, changes in material, voids, and cracks without disturbing the ground. GPR operators must be skilled in data collection, interpretation, and equipment maintenance to ensure accurate results.
