Civil engineering

Ground penetrating radar is utilised within civil construction and engineering for a variety of uses, including detection of utilities (buried water, gas, sewerage, electrical and telecommunication cables), mapping of soft soils and overburden for geotechnical characterisation, and other similar uses.
Civil engineering can also utilise remote sensing information for topographical mapping, planning and environmental impact assessment. Airborne electromagnetic surveys are also used to characterise soft sediments in planning and engineering roads, dams and other structures.
