You may have seen Ground Penetrating Radar (GPR) used on your favorite crime drama television series or read about GPR in a true crime narrative, but what really is GPR?  GPR is a geophysical method that uses the latest radar technology to image the subsurface.  Or more simply stated, GPR is like “ultra sound for the ground”.  While GPR can be used to detect shallow graves, it is most commonly used in the environmental and engineering field as a non-destructive method using electromagnetic radiation (less than today’s mobile telephones).  GPR can be used in a variety of media including soil, rock, concrete ice and other structures. It can detect objects of all composition (not just limited to metallic objects), changes in material, voids and cracks
