516 Ground-Penetrating Radar—Principles, Practice, and Processing.
This course covers a bit of everything about ground-penetrating radar (GPR). The classroom agenda covers basic GPR theory, instrumentation, and survey design. The field portion takes the class outside to collect some data, including GPR cross-sections integrated with GPS and a grid survey over a rectangular area of about 15 × 15 meters. Afterward, we will return to the classroom, install software on the students PCs and transfer the data from the GPR system to everyone’s computers. Students will learn about plotting data as cross-sections, 2D depth slices, and 3D cubes. At the same time we will discuss principles of interpreting GPR data and how to present GPR data effectively for scientific papers and reports. GPS integration and displaying data in Google Earth is also covered. Case studies are presented to expose students to data from other application areas.
