About
This three-day conference is the 9th of a biennial series of international scientific symposia aimed at exploring advancements in Ground Penetrating Radar (GPR) techniques and applications.
There will be sessions in the workshop covering (but not limited to) the following areas of GPR research, development and usage:
- Novel developments in GPR systems and antennas
- Advanced data and image processing algorithms
- Forward modelling techniques and inversion methodologies
- Archaeology and cultural heritage
- Engineering and Geotechnical applications, e.g. utility detection, road and pavement inspection, concrete evaluation, NDT, tunnelling and mining
- Geological applications, e.g. geology, sedimentology, hydrogeophysics, soil contamination, glaciology, and planetary exploration
- Security applications, unexploded ordnance and landmine detection
Please share our call for papers document with interested parties.
We currently (23.06.2017) have 149 delegates registered to attend the conference from a range of different countries around the world.
Next workshop - IWAGPR2019 hosting
It is customary to announce the hosts of the next conference, which will be IWAGPR2019, at the preceeding one. If you are interested in hosting IWAGPR2019 please email an expression of interest to info@iwagpr2017.org. Interested parties are usually expected to deliver a presentation outlining their bid. Selection of the winning bid is subsequently made by committee.
Previous workshops
The inaugural International Workshop on Advanced Ground Penetrating Radar took place in 2001 in Delft, The Netherlands. Since then the workshop has occurred biennially in various European cities. Almost all of the proceedings of the previous workshops have been published by the Institute of Electrical and Electronics Engineers (IEEE).
