GSSI to Showcase UtilityScan® GPR system at AGU Fall Meeting

GSSI, the world’s leading manufacturer of ground penetrating radar (GPR) equipment, announces it will be highlighting the UtilityScan® GPR system at the American Geophysical Union (AGU) 2018 Fall Meeting, which will be held December 10-14, 2018 at the Walter E. Washington Convention Center, in Washington, DC. Stop by booth #1309 to see the affordable new addition to the UtilityScan product line and the SIR® 4000 GPR control unit with the 350 HyperStacking Antenna.

UtilityScan features innovative technology never before available in the marketplace. The compact size makes it extremely portable and easy to maneuver in tight survey areas. This system has a robust wireless antenna that can handle required data rates and is ruggedly built to withstand challenging field conditions. The new UtilityScan uses GSSI’s patented HyperStacking technology, which has proven to increase depth penetration in challenging soils, while also providing high near surface data resolution. UtilityScan also has a backup Ethernet connection if Wi-Fi is not desired or allowed on a particular jobsite or facility. This unit can also be equipped with the LineTrac™ accessory, which helps locate specific power sources situated underground, including AC power and induced RF energy present in conduits.

Visitors to the booth can also see the SIR® 4000 ground penetrating radar (GPR) control unit. The controller is designed to bridge the legacy of GSSI’s traditional analog antennas with next-generation of digital offerings, giving it the flexibility by supporting a wide range of users in numerous applications.

Additionally, on display will be GSSI’s 350 HS Antenna, which greatly improves the depth and data resolution performance of traditional real time sampling technologies. The 350 HS Antenna allows users to see deeper targets and operate in conditions considered too “noisy” for conventional systems. Easily configurable, the 350 HS antenna is ideal for archaeology, geophysics, and utility locating applications.
