I recently was asked the following question by a fellow surveyor but was unable to help out very much as it's not really my bag, can anyone comment?
I?m trying to find out whether any talented caver (of the BCRA / CREG / Beet Heeb mould) has developed a home grown ground penetrating radar system? They?re about ?8-10K to buy and quite expensive to hire as well. It would be fun to build one from scratch and I now have many projects just waiting to be attacked with a GPR survey.
The spin-off surface survey applications for cave location work are obvious, as with the right antenna you can get depth penetration easily down to 5-10m and possibly much more. I know someone who probably has the ability to make the coils and circuitry, provided I could locate a design.
