Accuracy assessment of ground penetrating radar data In various soils / Fatin Hamizah Hisham

The usage of Ground Penetrating Radar (GPR) nowadays has become remarkable in detecting embedded objects underground, especially utilities that have been installed. The analysis from data collected can determine the position and type of buried item. However, data accuracy might not be accurate. Therefore, this aim of the study is to investigate the accuracy assessment of GPR. Concerning achieve the aim, the objectives are to study the accuracy of various soils for GPR radargram and to identify the best signal processing for accuracy in GPR data. The collection of data using MALA GPR. This study conducts the accuracy analysis of GPR data depending on various soils. From this study, the best signal processing for accuracy in GPR can be identified. The method used to do accuracy assessment is by using SNR, NRMSE, and RMS Velocity for every single processing filter. As a result, all processing steps are necessary to obtain a better result of tolerance.
