If you are looking for the most advanced underground scanning technology available, the OKM Gepard GPR 3D delivers extreme depth capability and professional-grade subsurface imaging.
This is not a standard metal detector.
This is a powerful Ground Penetrating Radar system designed for serious underground investigation.
With reported detection depths of up to 40 metres (132 ft), the Gepard GPR 3D stands at the top tier of deep scanning technology.
The Gepard GPR 3D is a professional Ground Penetrating Radar system using an omnidirectional unshielded transmission system to achieve maximum penetration depth.
Unlike a traditional detector of metal that responds only to metallic objects, this system scans and visualises underground structures, materials and voids.
It is designed for:
Customers using this technology have reported successful detection of underground objects down to 40 metres deep.
Depth performance depends on soil composition and object size, but this system is engineered for extreme penetration in professional environments.
This places it far beyond even the best metal detector UK category products.
Ground penetrating radar answers a different question from a detector. A detector tells you metal is present. Radar builds a picture of what the ground is made of, which is why it finds tunnels, foundations and cavities that no coil would ever register. That is also why it costs what it costs: this is survey equipment used by engineering and archaeology teams, bought on project budgets.
Customers using this system have reported successful detection down to 40 metres. That figure applies to substantial features in cooperative ground. Depth performance depends on soil composition and target size, and heavy clay or high moisture will reduce it. Nobody detects a coin at 40 metres with any technology, and we will not suggest otherwise. What this system buys you is the ability to assess a site properly before committing an excavator to it.
If this is beyond the project, Groundtech 3D scanners start at £1,300 and the wider OKM range covers systems from £2,390 upwards.
The Gepard GPR 3D is £27,750. Ground penetrating radar cost is driven by penetration depth and imaging quality, and this sits at the deep end. If your work does not need 40 metres, a 3D ground scanner from £1,300 may answer the same question for a fraction of the money. Ring us and we will say which honestly.
No. A metal detector responds only to metal. Radar responds to changes in the material of the ground, so it maps voids, walls and layers as well as metal objects. They are complementary tools, not substitutes.
Users report detection to 40 metres on substantial features. Treat that as a best case in favourable ground. Clay, high moisture and reinforced concrete all reduce penetration, and small objects are not detectable at anything like that depth.
Yes, genuinely. Collecting a usable scan requires grid discipline, and interpreting the output is a skill. Setup, calibration and a full walk through are included when you buy from us, and we stay reachable afterwards.
It can find a buried container, chamber or large mass that might hold gold. It is not a gold prospecting instrument and will not respond to a nugget or a coin. For prospecting, see our prospecting machines.
Ground Scan records a survey over a defined grid and builds a 3D image from it, which is what you use to assess an area properly. Live Stream gives immediate feedback as you move, which is useful for a first pass or for following a feature.
Yes. We handle warranty and support as the UK dealer, so a fault is a phone call here rather than an international shipping exercise on a system of this value.
Yes, and at this money you should. Ring us and we will arrange a demonstration rather than ask you to commit unseen.
