1 GeoRadar Division GPR Configuration for Archeology and Cultural Heritage Application
2 We believe that the Archaeological patrimony and the Cultural Heritage are one of the most important aspect of this patrimony. The problems related to the research and the management of the Archaeological sites and Cultural Heritage sites are growing every day, especially in the big urban areas, today projected into constantly urban expansion. Most of the cities are now developing in areas where, unfortunately, are located archaeological sites of relevant historic and artistic importance.
3 The orientation internationally is to develop a non-destructive archaeological approach to realize mapping of the sites and structures present in the subsoil without excavations.
4 Use of GPR in Archeological Surveys using GPR geophysical technique GPR Is an ideal technique for non invasive tool for site investigation To detect buried Anomalies For Site identification and excavation planning.

9 The Georadar transmits a very short pulse of e.m. energy into the material by a transmitting antenna. Energy reflected by discontinuities is captured by a receiving antenna Depth range & resolution are related to the radar frequency, transmitted power, host material e.m. properties and to the shape and characteristics of the targets PPG/2008/00xx All rights reserved to IDS 9

20 Two Electrical Properties Of Importance To GPR Work Electrical conductivity (inverse of resistivity) σ is a measure of a material s ability to carry an electric current The value is primarily controlled by water content and/or clay content Higher conductivity makes radar signal penetration difficult Relative dielectric permittivity (Dielectric constant) Measures the capacity of a material to store charge when an electric field is applied The value ranges from 1 to 81 (1 = air, 81 = water); the value (for soils) is mainly controlled by water content Differences in dielectric properties between two adjacent materials through which the radar wave propagates will cause reflection of some of the radar energy back to the surface The strength of reflections is controlled by the contrast in the dielectric constants of the two adjacent materials. PPG/2008/00xx All rights reserved to IDS 20
21 Depth of investigation Decreases as: Electrical Conductivity Increases Water Content Increases Clay Content Increases Scattering Increases Conductive Contaminant Increases GPR user has no control over the above factors--these are site specific characteristics. Increases as: Antenna Frequency Decreases Transmitter Power Increases Receiver Sensitivity Increases GPR user has control over the above factors to some degree 21
