SPH Engineering, in partnership with Radar Systems, Inc., is happy to announce the launch of a Ground Penetrating Radar (GPR) model, Zond Aero 500 NG, the first of its kind model to be designed for both terrestrial and drone-mounted surveys. This innovative system is designed to enhance efficiency and effectiveness in a variety of environments, making it a game-changer for professionals in utility scanning, sinkhole detection, glaciology, geology, and more.
Flexibility and Efficiency
GPR Zond Aero 500 NG stands out as the only fully universal system available on the market. A major advantage of the Zond Aero line of radars is that they are specifically engineered from the ground up for both terrestrial and airborne applications. While pairing a drone with a GPR system offers significant productivity and safety benefits, we recognize that for many of the most common GPR applications—such as utility scanning in urban areas—terrestrial mode might be more applicable.
Cost-effective and Upgradeable Solution
One of the standout features of this GPR model is its cost-effectiveness. Priced similarly to the most popular terrestrial GPRs, it offers users the unique opportunity to start with terrestrial applications and later upgrade to airborne capabilities. This flexibility allows for significant savings on initial investment while unlocking broader application opportunities over time.
Enhanced Data Quality
The new GPR model offers high-quality data collection with advanced electronics and real-time sampling. RTS increases the signal-to-noise ratio, enabling the detection of finer details and deeper anomalies and providing better-quality insights into subsurface structures. The advanced technology ensures that users receive the most accurate and reliable data, regardless of the survey environment.
