K-S Analysis, Germany http://www.groundpenetrating.gr/
About 10 years ago B. Kost was engaged in the development of ground
based radar technology. During the initial stage we always tested
our developments in nature at which we put emphasis on the operational
reliability rather than on design of the equipment. Ground Penetrating
Radar KS-700 The device has 1 antenna which is firmly connected with
the apparatus and connected to the electronic components. For this
radar it is not necessary to change the antenna in order to explore
higher depths, because it is based on other physical principles than,
for example, the pulse radar. But it is possible to optimize the device
for other searching tasks by adjusting the software. The antenna is
also shielded to all directions and therefore it only permeates (penetrates)
into the ground. The depth is calculated with a formula from radar
techniques by the software. Our radar can be completely operated by
one person only.

Sub-Surface Imaging Systems Inc., USA http://www.usradar.com/
US Radar is a leading manufacturer and distributor of ground penetrating
radar (GPR), systems. If you need to see what is on the other side of
a surface, the high-profile Quantum Imager can safely help you define
what you can’t see with the bare eye. GPR technology was first developed
by ERA Technology of Leatherhead, Surrey, England, in the 1980s to locate
plastic landmines as part of a British Ministry of Defense contract. It
helped reduce the risk of locating these dangerous, time-delayed bombs
through rubble and in the ground. After performing admirably, commercial
versions of the technology were developed in 1990, incorporating improvements
that made it more user-friendly to the private sector and accessible to
the masses. US Radar was formed in 1994 as the ERA Technology sales and
marketing partner for the Americas. It's original mission was to promote
the Seeker SPR technology, determine and test new applications, and identify
product improvements. All-in-one GPR systems are the most cost effective
solution for most end users. The all-in-one systems are also more maneuverable
and user-friendly. The various software options make it possible for these
units to be as simple as just turn on and go, yet also have various options
and capabilities targeted for more advanced users. Introducing the world's
first triple frequency GPR. The Quantum Imager excels in nearly all applications,
it is especially suited for clay soils, deep utilities, and fine targets
that require high resolution imaging. The Quantum Imager is the most versatile
