Below is a list of the main topics you can include in your inquiry:
What is the purpose of the survey?
Specify whether you want to map underground utility networks, locate a specific object, map all objects in a specific area, identify voids or soil migration, determine soil layers, or something else.
Where is the survey area located?
Please provide the exact address, cadastral number, property name, etc. It would be helpful if you could attach a plan of the survey area and a photo of the survey area to your inquiry.
What should be the depth of the survey?
How deep should the GPR “look” into the ground or a structure (floor, wall, ceiling, etc.).
What are the expected dimensions of the object?
For example, if you want to detect and map underground utility networks, what is their estimated diameter.
What material are the objects made of?
For example, are the pipes you are looking for made of metal, plastic or concrete?
What is the ground surface like in the survey area?
Is the survey area covered with asphalt, grass, fields, etc.? Is the ground flat, hilly or mountainous?
What else is known about the survey area?
What is the size of the survey area? Are there any objects in the area that could interfere with scanning, such as trees, bushes, cars, buildings, etc.? Is the survey area freely accessible? Is there traffic in the area?
In what form would you like to receive the survey results?
Where should the survey results (e.g., identified objects) be marked in the survey area, or would you prefer the results to be geodetically measured and mapped in GIS, CAD, or another format?
The clearer we understand the purpose of the survey and the situation in the survey area, the more confidently we can tell you whether ground-penetrating radar is the right tool for the job. We can also tell you how long the survey you want might take and how much it will cost. The initial information you provide is also important for developing a survey strategy, selecting GPR and antennas, and planning other necessary work.
