PGCE

I am now on a PGCE course at Exeter University learning how to teach Information Communication Technologies (ICT) at secondary level. I hope to be able to teach in University again to post-graduates sometime in the near future, but for now I am enjoying teaching in schools. It is nice to be able to bring in my past experience in archaeology/history/physics to enrich and contextualise cross-curricular learning. The great thing about being a teacher is I still have the summers free to carry on with my archaeology and keep my hand in with progressive technologies and techniques within geomatics/geophysics.

The Thesis is in!

Thanks to all those who have helped and supported me, and an extra big thanks to all the home owners who let me into their wonderful homes

:)

PS I did get an email from a home owner a month or so back offering me a chance to visit their house, I have lost that email so could you please contact me again as I would love to, thank you, Richard

PPS, merry xmas and a splendid new year to you all.

How Ground Penetrating Radar (GPR) works

ground-penetrating radar (GPR) is a technology NASA created to study moon dust and the military used to find enemy tunnels during the Vietnam war. And in the past few years, it’s revolutionized archaeology. Different materials reflect energy back to the surface in different ways, allowing researchers to “see” each distinctive feature.The radar machine has a box with two antennas – one that sends radar pulses into the ground and another that receives the information that bounces back up.

We at Sub Ground Imaging have a GPR and available for commercial works or free for academic research.

Sub Ground Imaging
We are able to carry out a number of various types of geophysical surveys, and in some cases – namely academic research – can offer our services free of charge. One of our main tools is a VIY Ground Penetrating Radar (GPR), this is a very exciting piece of kit!
