This documents InfoBank's usage of "ground penetrating radar"

"Ground-Penetrating Radar" (GPR) information (as used within the CMG InfoBank ) covers above water and below water GPR systems operating from 50MHz to 450MHz.

GPR information occurs in the InfoBank as:

metadata information about GPR inventory of gear and operation of gear.

InfoBank GPR metadata file names:

<Activity-ID>.onoff.gpr50mhz	ground-penetrating radar 50 mhz systems metadata
<Activity-ID>.onoff.gpr50mhzwater	ground-penetrating radar 50 mhz water systems metadata
<Activity-ID>.onoff.gpr100mhz	ground-penetrating radar 100 mhz systems metadata
<Activity-ID>.onoff.gpr100mhzcrosshole	ground-penetrating radar 100 mhz cross hole systems metadata
<Activity-ID>.onoff.gpr200mhz	ground-penetrating radar 200 mhz systems metadata
<Activity-ID>.gpr.gpr450mhz	ground-penetrating radar 450 mhz systems metadata
