Collect high-density, georeferenced GPR data across wide areas and view the subsurface in 3D as you scan. Choose the GX2 array for SUE and utility mapping, or the GX1 array for structural, bridge and pavement investigations.

Best suited to:
Recommended array: GX2
Recommended array: GX1
Cover more ground
Collect multiple parallel profiles in one pass instead of uilding a grid line by line.
See results during acquisition
View georeferenced radargrams and time-slice information in the field rather than waiting until the data is returned to the office.
Produce repeatable mapped data
Combine wheel-positioned GPR data with GNSS, project coordinates and survey linework.
Use one platform for two very different applications
Exchange GX1 and GX2 arrays without purchasing two complete cart platforms.
The GX2 transforms the GS9000 into a high-density subsurface utility mapping system. Its 11-channel, low-frequency GPR array captures an 83 cm-wide swath in each pass, helping operators detect and map buried pipes, ducts, cables, voids and other subsurface features. Live georeferenced data lets SUE teams review coverage on site and produce accurate CAD, GIS and project-coordinate deliverables.
1. Plan the survey
Load satellite imagery, CAD information, project coordinates or survey control.
2. Collect dense multichannel data
Survey an approximately 0.82 m-wide swath with 11 channels in each pass.
3. Review data live
Examine radargrams, georeferenced time slices and marked features while still on site.
4. Interpret and digitise
Add points, linework, tags, photographs and field observations.
5. Process and deliver
Merge survey areas, apply processing and export mapped information for the customer’s CAD, GIS or reporting workflow.

The UTR-0450.PVPR Automatic Pressure Unit is used to apply lateral pressure in the Hoek Cell during the triaxial testing of rock specimens.
The power pack is equipped with a proportional valve to provide a sensitive. Pressure is controlled using PID closed loop electronics. The user can define the set lateral pressure and display the lateral pressure through the U-Touch PRO Control Unit.
The user will also require an automatic compression testing machine to apply the vertical load required for triaxial and uniaxial tests.
To see the details of Hoek Cells required for triaxial testing of rock specimens, please look at the page of Hoek Triaxial Cells.
SAFETY FEATURES of UTR-0450.PVPR
UTR-0450.PVPR is supplied complete with 1.5 m long hose.

The GX1 transforms the GS9000 into a high-resolution structural assessment system for concrete slabs, bridge decks and pavements. Its dense, dual-polarisation array captures detailed 3D data across wide areas, supporting reinforcement and cover mapping, moisture and deterioration assessment, and analysis of asphalt and pavement layers. Live visualisation helps confirm survey coverage on site, while post-processing tools produce clear, report-ready condition maps.
1. Define the inspection area
Import the structure, bridge, pavement or survey background.
2. Collect closely spaced profiles
Capture 35 longitudinal and 15 cross-polarised channels with dense spacing.
3. Review coverage in the field
Use live radargrams and time slices to confirm that the required area has been captured.
4. Process the dataset
Apply velocity, gain, background removal, migration, filtering and topographic correction as appropriate.
5. Generate diagnostic maps
Create depth slices, reinforcement maps, layer information or application-specific condition maps.
6. Integrate with the engineering assessment
Export figures, mapped anomalies and raw data for inclusion in the engineer’s final interpretation and report.
