Locate It All – Successfully locating Unexploded Ordinances (UXO) in the Philippines
Subsite® 2550GR Ground Penetrating Radar System
On 24 Apr, USAE Philippines office, Infrastructure Equipment and Services (IES), had a very successful GPR Demo at the proposed staging Area for the Philippine National Railway (PNR) Clark Station. We were able to successfully demonstrate that the Subsite® 2550GR GPR can be successfully used to locate unexploded ordinances (UXO) prior to excavating at a jobsite.
The Blue Flags mark the areas with high magnetic responses indicating there are potentially UXOs buried there.

The customer selected 5 target points for us to scan, points 27 – 31. We scanned in a Grid and measured 5meters around the target points and marked the locations where they should excavate with flags.

At point 31 we got this reading indicating a possible UXO or utility.
With the results from the Subsite 2550GR Ground Penetrating Radar System the customer can safely excavate the point and safely remove the ordinance.

The Subsite® 2550GR Ground Penetrating Radar System will help you locate any type of utility conduit or piping—metallic or non-metallic, including PVC—beneath soil, rock, pavement, and other surfaces.
