Abstract

Abstract

Combining with the recent research at home and abroad, the application of Ground Penetrating Radar in active fault detection was summed up and concluded. Three aspects on the application of GPR in active fault detection were put forward and reviewed:the application of GPR in urban active fault, the application of GPR in paleoearthquake and the interpretation of fault in the GPR profile, and an example of the method was illustrated to demonstrate the effectiveness of GPR method in Litang active. Finally, the existing problems of the application of GPR in active fault detection was put forward, and the direction of development and the prospect of this technology were also denoted.
- Ground Penetrating Radar,
- active fault,
- urban active fault,
- paleoearthquake,
- data interpretation
