Ground penetrating radar (GPR) is an electromagnetic geophysical technique used to image the subsurface. It transmits radio wave pulses to detect returning signals, which help determine the depth and size of subsurface targets. GPR generally operates in the 10 to 1000 MHz frequency range and can reach depths of about 10 to 100 meters, depending on the surface. In Earth science, GPR is used to measure ice thickness, soil layers, groundwater levels, bedrock depth, water depth, rock fractures, and various other applications.
