Beskrivelse

 

Universal ground penetrating radar system for terrestrial and airborne surveys with real-time sampling (RTS) technology and advanced built-in digital signal processing to provide high quality data with an exceptional signal-to-noise ratio.

The Zond Aero 1000 NG is a truly versatile system that can be used in the most appropriate way for specific survey conditions:

  • on a cart – the most standard method for scanning on the streets or in confined spaces
  • dragged with a tow rope if the load-bearing capacity of the ground surface is not suitable for a wheeled cart
  • on a drone for large open areas without tall obstacles and vegetation

Lightweight GPR system on the market, suitable for medium-sized drones like DJI M350/M300 RTK.

This package includes a transportation box and mountings for the DJI M300/M350 RTK drone. Mounts for other types of drones are available upon request.

Please note that additional components and software must be ordered to use this GPR with drones. It is recommended to order a complete set. Please ask for the quote.
