Below is information regarding Ground-Penetrating Radar (GPR) intensive field school and professional training programs.  More information can also be found at:
https://www.archaeotek-archaeology.org/applied-field-geophysics-gpr)

This program focuses on skill acquisition, ready to be deployed professionally in an exploratory as well as research context.  It is designed as an intensive 5-day laboratory and field school in all aspects of ground penetrating radar investigation, from theoretical principles to survey design, field preparation, data collection, in-depth analysis, report writing, and podium presentation. Our participants, in 3 person teams, will learn the theory and methods involved in GPR exploration in various environments. They will familiarize themselves with the GPR instrumentation, working with the most deployed systems in archaeology, forensics and urban planning, respectively 250MHz and 500MHz antennas, in both Rough Terrain and Cart Configuration. Our participants will explore -comparatively - a multilayered, target rich environment, ranging in human occupation from pre-Roman to modern periods.

Concurrently, our participants will learn how to manipulate, optimize and analyze in-depth the data thus collected using SenSoft’s EKKO Project GPR analytical software package, in order to generate professional reports as well as present the research and its results in a scientific manner, in a podium presentation.

Applied Field Geophysics Workshop – Ground Penetrating Radar (GPR) Applications

Location: Rapolt / Micia / Uroi, Hunedoara County, Transylvania - Romania
Dates: June 14-20; June 21-27; July 12-18; July 19-25, 2020
Team Size: 3 participants per GPR system per session
E-mail: archaeology@archaeotek.org

Description: Our program offers intensive training in Ground Penetrating Radar exploration techniques, both field and laboratory analysis, as it applies to the anthropogenic transformation of a historical landscape. Our two case studies are the fortified medieval military castle of Uroi; and the multi-layered, multi-occupation from late Prehistory to present day site of Micia. Our participants will become proficient with 250MHz and 500MHz GPR systems in both rough terrain and cart configurations.

Program Fees: US$ 1095 per 5-day session (program fees, equipment, full room and board - see webpage for details).
