A geophysical method that uses radar pulses to "see" below surface. This non destructive method uses electromagnetic waves and detects reflected signals from subsurface structures.
GPR can have applications in a variety of media, including rock, soil, ice, fresh water, pavements and structures. In the right conditions, we can utilize GPR to detect subsurface objects (roots, utilities, etc.) as well as voids and cracks.
Todays inspection of tree roots involves invasive and costly measures such as closing of roads, excavation and removal of mass to locate roots and utility lines. GPR is a quick and gentle option for landscapers and entrepreneurs to inspect and map the subsurface.
