Radar is a useful tool with familiar uses such as detecting aircraft and observing weather. It also has some less known applications, such as a technology known as ground-penetrating radar (GPR).

One of the most interesting is [Glenn Powers]’ Open Ground Penetrating Radar. It’s exactly what the title says: an open-source radar system that can see into the Earth for less than $500.

We offer state-of-the-art capabilities in subsurface (ice/soil) RADAR measurements in a man-portable, multi-static, FM-CW testbed systems. We test different GPR designs for ice penetration and ...
