Geophysical Surveys

We offer geophysical surveying services across the UK

Geophysical Surveys

Ground Penetrating Radar (GPR Survey) is a non-intrusive technique used to image the subsurface. The multiple-frequency antennas allow for the detection of voids, buried obstructions, or other notable features. It works by transmitting an electromagnetic pulse/signal into the ground and recording the strength and time required for the return of the signals from the various materials underneath.

Applications include:

  • Subsurface/geophysical investigations to supplement intrusive investigations
  • Void detection/location such as sink holes, chambers, septic tanks, etc
  • Buried tanks or reservoir location
  • Location of large, buried objects.
  • Concrete scanning

  • Resistivity Imaging

    Resistivity imaging is a widely used practice for mapping geological structures within the shallow subsurface. Our non-invasive approach gives Land Science the advantage of providing continuous and accurate information about the subsurface composition, while remaining cost-effective compared to traditional invasive methods.

    In addition, we also undertake a variety of specialised investigations relevant to geotechnical and contaminated land assessments.

    Contaminated Land Assessements

    Land Science can assist with contaminated land assessments as part of a planning application or any other purpose prior or during house building, commercial development or creation of new infrastructure.

    Land assessments are often required to assess soil contamination or groundwater pollution issues amongst a host of other potential problems. We assist at all phases of the assessment process with comprehensive desk studies, site investigations, contaminated land remediation and validation and post remediation monitoring.

    Geotechnical Support

    Land science provides geotechnical investigations which will help you to make informed decisions about the design of pavements, foundations and drainage on your project. Our in-house geotechnical laboratory testing capability enables us to undertake a range of sample analysis in-house.

    Where more specialised geotechnical testing is required, we have a range of trusted preferred partners that we call upon on a regular basis.
