Hello, could you tell me if there is a ground-penetrating radar that can perform reliably in stony or rocky soil? Often, the signal is distorted in these conditions, making it difficult to get a clear picture of subsurface objects. Standard solutions produce very inaccurate results for us. We currently have a site in a mountainous area where the data from standard equipment is very unstable-the signal keeps cutting out, and it’s difficult to distinguish actual structures from natural interference. I started looking into more specialized options and came across solutions like ground-penetrating radar for rocky terrain. However, I’m still unsure about the justification of this investment. Would such equipment make a noticeable difference, or would the operator’s experience and correct interpretation play a bigger role?
Have you worked in areas like that before, or is this your first project of this kind? I remember I had a similar situation at a quarry site where standard equipment produced very noisy results. At first, it seemed like just a technical issue. That’s partly true because there’s a separate GPR for Rocky Terrain with the right frequency range and signal stability. But still, without an experienced operator, even a good device won’t give a clear picture. In our case, Mayaglobal helped us with combining different methods, making more tries, comparing data, and slightly adjusting the scanning parameters. Their team works like professionals-it was a pleasure to watch-and they also gave us some good advice on this kind of terrain.
