Ground Penetrating Radar (GPR)

Non-destructive subsurface imaging technology that reveals underground utilities, voids, and structural elements.

Technology Overview

Ground Penetrating Radar (GPR) uses electromagnetic pulses to create detailed images of subsurface structures. Our advanced GPR systems can detect buried utilities, concrete reinforcement, post-tension cables, voids, and underground infrastructure without any excavation or damage. This technology is essential for safe construction activities, utility locating, and structural investigation in BC's complex building environment.
