Are All GPR Scans the Same? How Xradar’s Interpretation Skills Set Us Apart

March 17, 2025
When it comes to concrete scanning, many assume that all Ground Penetrating Radar (GPR) scans yield the same results. After all, the technology is widely available, and various companies offer scanning services. However, the truth is that a GPR scan is only as effective as the person interpreting the data. This is where Xradar stands apart.

The Limitations of Standard GPR Scanning

GPR is a powerful tool for detecting embedded objects in concrete, such as rebar, post-tension cables, and conduits.

However, standard GPR scanning has its limitations:

  • Subjectivity in Interpretation: GPR data is complex and requires expert interpretation to distinguish between different subsurface features accurately.
  • Potential for False Positives/Negatives: Misinterpretation of data can lead to costly mistakes, such as unnecessary coring, missed hazards, or structural damage.
  • Skill Gaps Among Operators: Many companies provide GPR services without a rigorous training process, leading to inconsistent and unreliable results.
