LOCATING UNDERGROUND STORAGE TANKS USING A GROUND PENETRATING RADAR AND METAL DETECTOR

摘要

Ground penetrating radar (GPR) control and metal detector data were acquired at two study sites in St. Louis with the objective of identifying and locating buried underground storage tanks (UST). GPR profiles were acquired along closely-spaced traverses using a single GSSI400 MHz antenna; metal detector data were acquired along the same traverses using a Geonics' EM61-MK2. Both instruments were coupled to wheeled survey carts.
