3 Month’s Advanced Online Course On Ground Penetrating Radar

The incorrect and inappropriate use of GPR has over the years caused a great deal of damage to its reputation as a bona fide and reliable technology. The objective of this course on GPR is to make the participants familiar with advanced data acquisition, data processing and interpretation techniques to derive maximum amount of information from data collected. After completing this course, user should be able to collect the GPR data, carry out basic as well as advanced data processing of data and interpret the results in a range of application areas.

Course Approach

  1. Live webinar to deliver the course (day and time of webinar will be suitably chosen so as not to conflict with your working hours).
  2. Training Modules (Reading material)
  3. Membership of a member’s only Facebook group for interaction within the group members on various aspects of GPR.
