description Controlled forensic using GPR has been successful used by law enforcement agencies from other countries to locate graves and forensic evidence. However, in Malaysia, forensic agencies are still using cadaver dogs in order to determine the clandestine graves. The purpose of this study was to determine the applicability of GPR in detecting controlled graves for Malaysia environment. The objectives for this study included what the different images radar between four burial scenarios (e.g naked object, wrapped object, metal object, and wrapped object in 0.5m) in a month monitoring, comparing GPR imagery between 250 MHz and 750 MHz antenna and to analyze all the images.
