Project Abstract

Abstract
Ground-penetrating radar (GPR) has emerged as a powerful geophysical tool for subsurface imaging in various fields, including urban environments. This research investigates the application of GPR for subsurface imaging in urban settings, focusing on its capabilities, limitations, and significance. The study aims to address the growing need for non-invasive subsurface imaging techniques in urban areas to support infrastructure development, environmental monitoring, and archaeological investigations. The research begins with an introduction that highlights the importance of subsurface imaging in urban environments, followed by a comprehensive literature review on the principles, applications, and advancements in GPR technology. The methodology section details the data collection procedures, data processing techniques, and data interpretation methods employed in the study. The research methodology incorporates field surveys, data acquisition using GPR equipment, and advanced data processing algorithms to create high-resolution subsurface images. The findings of the study are presented in detail in the discussion chapter, which includes an analysis of the subsurface structures detected using GPR, the interpretation of anomalies and features in urban environments, and the evaluation of the effectiveness of GPR for subsurface imaging. The discussion also addresses the challenges and limitations faced during the research, such as signal attenuation in urban settings, depth limitations, and data interpretation complexities. The conclusion chapter summarizes the key findings of the research, highlighting the benefits and limitations of using GPR for subsurface imaging in urban environments. The study underscores the significance of GPR as a non-destructive and cost-effective tool for subsurface investigations in urban areas, emphasizing its potential for infrastructure planning, utility mapping, and environmental monitoring. The research contributes to the body of knowledge on geophysical techniques for urban subsurface imaging and provides insights for future research and applications. Overall, this research project on the "Application of Ground-Penetrating Radar for Subsurface Imaging in Urban Environments" demonstrates the efficacy of GPR as a valuable geophysical tool for non-invasive subsurface imaging in urban settings. The study advances our understanding of GPR technology and its applications in urban environments, paving the way for enhanced subsurface imaging capabilities in various fields.
