Locating Unmarked Grave Sites

in , /

The daily tasks of the Underground Detective technicians mostly involve using ground penetrating radar (GPR) to locate underground utilities, UST’s, and other objects in the underground. But occasionally, a little variety is added to our days when we are asked to use GPR to locate unmarked graves in a cemetery. At this particular site in Jackson, KY

, the technician found approximately ten unmarked grave sites and several others where the head stones had been moved from their original location due to vandalism. Our technician even had a great crowd of onlookers to witness his performance! This is just another example of the power ground penetrating radar has to offer.
