The comparison between ground penetrating radar [GPR] and electromagnetic locater [EML] in : underground utility detection / Muhammad Haikal Zamshah

This research is about the using of equipment Ground Penetrating Radar (GPR) and Electromagnetic Locator (EML) in underground utility detection. Both of the GPR and EML have their own advantages and disadvantages. Besides, the ability of both methods is different. Every utility survey relates with a...
