Do you need to locate underground storage tanks? If yes, GPR reflection mapping surveys can help you find underground storage tanks (USTs) quick and easy when real estate transactions require environmental site assessment.
Confirming whether USTs are present or absent can be a critical factor in real estate contract closing. Not only will GPR detect USTs but also related pipes. A perfect example of when GPR reflection mapping surveys would need to be used to identify the presence of USTs is at the site of a gasoline station.
GPR solutions are great tools for locating and mapping active and abandoned USTs. At a gas station it is necessary for safety reasons to detect USTs because gasoline is highly flammable. GPR solutions not only minimize business disruption but also the GPR solutions help grid and survey the environment.
The GPR survey has the capability to cross-section and clearly creates a visual of where USTs are located and positioned. The GPR survey can also do depth slices, which clearly defines the position and length of tanks. It will also make visible product lines.
Any GPR data collected in separate grids can be displayed in a single view to make interpretations easier. The GPR grid data also allows users to rotate and cut into data volume and make highlights.
Here are a few benefits GPR can offer you today to locate USTs:
- GPR configurations are optimized to quickly accomplish grid surveying.
- Your field crew can be easily trained to properly handle GPR equipment in less than a day.
- Using GPR can allow a two-person crew to complete the whole project in less than half a day.
- GPR image mapping can locate take-offs, bell-joints and laterals.
