GROUND PENETRATING RADAR (GPR)

Fortis Data Example.jpg

WHAT IS GPR?

Ground penetrating radar (GPR) offers safe and comprehensive scanning for a wide range of applications and is is arguably Earth Scan's most versatile tool. This powerful, yet non-destructive, tool is perfect for many jobs including; identifying and locating geologic structures, locating abandoned infrastructure such as pipelines or landfills, mapping bedrock profiles on future highway developments, measuring ice thickness on glaciers, and much much more.
