Merged ground penetrating radar display for multiple antennas
TLDR
In this article, a visual output of data from a ground-penetrating radar is displayed on a visual medium, such as a display with a first exhibition of output from a higher frequency range antenna, a second exhibition from a lower-frequency range antenna (compared to the other antenna; see definition in the "detailed description"), and a transition area between the first and second exhibition having merged data from the lower frequency antenna and the higher frequency antenna.Abstract:
In an embodiment of the disclosed technology, a visual output of data from a ground-penetrating radar is displayed on a visual medium. The display has a first exhibition of output from a higher frequency range antenna, a second exhibition of output from a lower frequency range antenna (compared to the other antenna; see definition in the "detailed description"), and a transition area between the first and second exhibition having merged data from the lower frequency antenna and the higher frequency antenna. The depth range of the transition area may be varied based on optimal depth range of each antenna, such as manually by a viewer viewing the visual output, which may occur in real-time, that is, while operating the radar and viewing the visual output thereof. Or, the transition depth range and/or width of the transition region may be varied as part of post-processing.read more
