Use
Radar for short (0 to 30m) targets where the feature is sharp and
not diffuse. It works well for clear boundaries and distinct objects
like pipes or voids or similar
Imaging deep river bed Structure
The radar antenna was dragged across the surface of the old river
channel, The scans pick up structure in the banks iof the river to
the left and right. The scans also pickup the base of the the old
channel . This shows up as the "bowl shaped" reflector near the base
of the image. There is structure within the river channel, probably
silt banks and old shoals and deeper erosion deposits

| Benefits of Ground Radar |
|
Rapid collection of data. |
|
It can give a picture of the structure
where many other methods just give a "beep". |
|
In many cases the feature of interest
is obvious on the screen or printout. This means easier to use results. |
|
It is a recognised method that, when
applied by professionals gives reliable and reproducible results. |
|
It will detect a range of targets
including metals, plastics, ceramics and others whereas other methods
typically will only see metallic objects or may only detect one feature. |

| Sometimes it's challenging to get good
data, it was raining, we needed to finish the job. The Sir 10 was loaded
into a plastic wheelbarrow, the umbrella rigged with rope stays to hold
it upright, it even had to be tacked against the wind. |
