Ground-Penetrating Radar Soil Suitability Maps URL: http://soils.usda.gov/survey/geography/maps/GPR/index.html Description: U.S. and state soil suitability maps for ground-penetrating radar (GPR), "a geophysical method that is often mentioned in news commentaries for its use in locating unmarked graves, clandestine burials and tunnels, terrorism and military hazards, and disaster victims. However, the effectiveness of GPR in these activities is highly site-specific and soil dependent." The maps incorporate data from State Soil Geographic (STATSGO) and the Soil Survey Geographic (SSURGO) databases. From the Natural Resources Conservation Service, USDA.
