Overview:
Ground Penetrating Radar has established itself as one of the most popular, non-invasive imaging techniques for a diverse range of environmental, geotechnical and archaeological applications. Unrivalled as a tool for sub-surface investigation, GPR is a user-friendly, rapid and cost-effective method for characterizing the sub-surface. However, understanding and interpreting GPR data can be problematic particularly in complex environments. This course will provide practical experience and knowledge of GPR use, processing and interpretation to allow users to get the most out of their GPR projects.

Who Should Attend:
This course it is designed for professional and management staff, in particular civil, structural and geotechnical engineers, local authority personnel, archaeologists, planners, builders, developers and geoscientists.

Presenters:
Dr John M. Reynolds (Reynolds Geosciences Ltd)
Dr Nigel Cassidy (Keele University)
