Imaging and Quantitative Estimation of In-Situ Properties from Ground Penetrating Radar Data

小行星9402386 本研究旨在发展探地雷达资料之野外实验设计、资料撷取策略及定量分析与解释软体。 人们越来越重视浅层、高分辨率地球物理技术的广泛应用，包括环境调查。 在过去，由于没有其他可用的方法，通常只对GPR图像进行初步处理。 随着高质量数字记录探地雷达系统的出现，新的大门已经打开，允许广泛的，定量的数据成像和反演技术应用于探地雷达数据。 这项工作将利用广泛的三维地震反演开发这一新的应用。 ***

9402386 McMechan This research is to develop field experiment designs, data acquisition strategies and software for quantitative analysis and interpretation of ground penetrating radar (GPR) data. There is an increasing emphasis on shallow, high-resolution geophysical techniques for a wide variety of applications, including environmental investigations. In the past, GPR images were generally interpreted with only rudimentary processing because nothing else was available. With the advent of high quality digitally recording GPR systems, new doors have been opened allowing extensive, quantitative data imaging and inversion techniques to be applied to GPR data. This work will take advantage of extensive 3-D seismic inversion development for this new application. ***
