GPR accuracy varies depending on several factors, including radar frequency, type of material penetrated, and specific application. Typically, GPR can provide high-resolution images of underground features, with accuracy in identifying the location of objects within a few centimeters to a few decimeters. However, accuracy can be influenced by soil conditions, moisture content and the presence of other materials.
GPR can be effective in finding buried bodies, but its accuracy depends on factors such as soil type, depth and state of decomposition.
Under optimal conditions, GPR can detect anomalies that indicate the presence of a body, but it cannot always provide a clear image. The effectiveness of GPR in locating bodies also depends on the skill of the operator and interpretation of the data.
The detection depth of GPR depends on the frequency of radar waves and the electrical conductivity of the ground. Lower frequency radar waves can penetrate deeper but provide less resolution, while higher frequency waves provide higher resolution but shallower penetration.
GPR can typically detect features at depths ranging from a few centimeters to several meters, with some systems capable of reaching up to 30 meters in ideal conditions.
The range of GPR refers to its ability to detect objects within a certain depth below the surface. This range can vary from less than a meter to more than 30 meters, depending on the radar frequency, ground conditions and the specific equipment used.
Lower frequencies are used for deeper penetration, while higher frequencies provide detailed images of shallow underground features.
The effective depth of GPR is the maximum depth at which the radar can provide useful data. This depth is influenced by radar frequency, soil properties and the presence of moisture or conductive materials. In general, the effective depth varies from a few meters in clayey or wet soils to more than 30 meters in dry, sandy or rocky soils. The specific conditions and objectives of the investigation will determine the most appropriate depth for the use of GPR
