Georadar Drone – Zond Aero 1000 NG
GPR georadar system for drone compatible with DJI Matrice 300/350.
Zond Aero 1000 is an ultralight single-unit GPR specially designed for portable solutions.
The device can be used as stand-alone on-board equipment with power from an external source and Ethernet cable connection or inside the fully protective waterproof case with its own built-in lithium-ion battery and WiFi.
The user receives real-time information in the form of a radiolocation profile (sometimes also referred to as a radargram). The data is recorded on a hard disk for further use(processing, printing, interpretation, etc.) at the same time.
Here you will see examples of radiolocation profiles…
Zond Aero 1000 has a built-in 1000 MHzshielded antenna for
single-channel operation on different time intervals.
Zond Aero 1000 can be optionally equipped with the shockproof trolley.

All georadar parameters are controlled by the computer, so many hardware features are described here…
* The ratio of resolution to survey depth assumes that the survey is conducted in soil whose relative dielectric permectivity is 4 and specific attenuation is between 1 and 2 dB/m.
Survey depth is defined as the depth of survey of a plane boundary with reflectance equal to 1. Note that these data are rather approximate and strongly depend on the parameters of the surveyed environment.
Georadar Drone Applications
- Ground Mine Search, UXO (Unexploded Ordnance)
- Archaeology
- Search for any metal objects weighing a few hundred grams or more lying underground
- Perform geological mapping in the exploration of extractable minerals and other extractable resources
- Identify the spatial distribution of ore bodies by looking for regional variations in the magnetic field
- Conduct geological investigations to discover anomalies
- Monitor tailings storage facility (TSF) facilities to prevent potential accidents
- Perform moisture analysis of TSFs to minimize hazardous leakage
- Conducting stratigraphic horizon modeling.
