The implementation and analysis of water drainage detection using ground penetrating radar (GPR) technology / Mohd Ramdan Mohamad

Groundwater is one of the natural resources of drinking water instead of the surface water. Determination of groundwater sources specifically in Malaysia has proven to be incompetent, destructive, time consuming and expensive. Hence this leads the need to adopt a well-established technique for hydro...
