Abstract

 There are many activities of post-disaster rehabilitation that can become more efficient by subsurface surveys using ground-penetrating radar (GPR). In the present paper, case studies of GPR survey for various activities, such as archeological surveys, near-surface exploration and search for lost articles by Tsunami, are shown. For archaeological surveys and bear-surface exploration, GPR survey can quickly and easily detect and locate object to be investigated, and it makes the following investigations with excavation more efficient. This is illustrated with the examples of archaeological surveys in Nobiru-Chikkou site (Higashimatsushima-town, Miyagi) and Kassenhara tomb cluster (Yamamoto-town, Miyagi) and a near-surface exploration in Iwaki-city, Fukushima. For the search operation of missing people and lost articles, it is demonstrated that GPR can contribute by detecting and locating buried object. Further, GPR systems used for these activities are presented.<br>
