Noggin® configurations are designed to meet diverse exploration needs by allowing you to take your GPR into every environment and terrain on Earth. The SmartChariot provides vehicle-towed deployment of Noggin® 250, 500 or 1000 systems. It is ideal for surveys covering large, smooth, open areas that can be performed using a vehicle: roads, highway sections and bridges needing quick assessment, large parking lots, parking garages, and open fields such as golf courses and parks.
Features
The SmartChariot attaches to a common trailer hitch on any vehicle: cars, trucks and vans, but also ATV?s (all-terrain vehicles), tractors and even bicycles and motorcycles can be used.
A wheel odometer to trigger data acquisition at default or user-defined intervals (step size) to provide uniform data coverage
Sensors & Software's unique DynaQ feature automatically adjusts data acquisition rates to the survey speed; providing dynamic stacking to maximize data quality
A mount for a GPS receiver (GPS optional)
Brackets to quickly swap between the Noggin® 250, 500 and 1000 systems
The ability to deploy two Noggins simultaneously: a Noggin® 500 and a Noggin® 1000
High and low tow hitch positions for any vehicle
Optional GPS for geo-referencing data
Durable fibreglass to eliminate signal interference
Ground coupled for maximum penetration
