Raptor® GPR

UMS has acquired and successfully deployed the Raptor®, the newly Federal Communications Commission certified high-speed ground penetrating radar (GPR) array manufactured by Impulse Radar AB in Sweden. The system is the first GPR array to incorporate real-time digital sampling technology that allows the collection of 3D GPR data at posted highway speeds. The advanced digital technology provides increased depth penetration in most soils and a large bandwidth facilitates greater resolution of utility and other targets.

FEATURES

• Collect data at posted highway speeds in most areas
• High-resolution, dense 3D data coverage
• Positioning to survey grade
• Utility and other features are directly mapped to CAD software

BENEFITS

• Reduces project data collection costs and time
• No lane closures or traffic control for most projects
• Augments all sensor data for SUE investigations over large areas not practical with 2D GPR systems
• Provides higher quality dense data to detect more underground facilities and other buried objects
