“…We have therefore provided a solid 3D volume display, which is an important part of the interpretation of the GPR data evaluated (i.e. Kadioglu, ). Figure (a) shows a 3D sub‐volume of the survey area below 2 m from the surface considering the area of 47 m × 22.5 m dimensions, and profile 19 which cuts the main anomalies investigated was also shown on Figure (a).…”

“…Thus, very successful results mainly via integrated usage of geophysical prospection techniques have been obtained in studies conducted in the ancient age urban areas in Anatolia, which are now serving cultural and heritage tourism. Some of them includes Aizanoi (Küçükdemirci, Özer, Piro, Baydemir, & Zamuner, 2017), Alabanda (Karavul, Karaaslan, & Demirkol, 2016), Amorium (Kaya, Ekinci, Yiğit, & Lightfoot, 2007;Ekinci, Balkaya, Şeren, Kaya, & Lightfoot, 2014), Hierapolis (Negri & Leucci, 2006;Nuzzo, Leucci, & Negri, 2009), Metropolis (Özyalın, Balkaya, & Erhan, 2010), Nysa (Kadioglu, Kadioglu, & Kadioglu, 2013;Yalçiner et al, 2009), Parion (Ekinci et al, 2012;, Sagalassos (e.g. Dirix, Muchez, Degryse, Mušič, & Poblome, 2013), Sardis (Drahor, 2006), Satala (Drahor, Kurtulmuş, Berge, Hartmann, & Speidel, 2008a), and Zeugma (Drahor, Berge, Kurtulmuş, Hartmann, & Speidel, 2008b).…”

Pisidian Antioch was founded as a military base in the Hellenistic period around 300 BC. A consecutive archaeological structure, extending 55 m long, mainly includes two adjacent abscissas and a wall remain thought to be a watchtower. An integrated geophysical survey including ground-penetrating radar (GPR) and electrical resistivity tomography (ERT) techniques was conducted to determine the existence of counterparts of this structure in a small-scale area. GPR scans acquired via zigzag mode using 500 MHz antenna along 45 parallel lines were evaluated by a series of basic data processing steps. Considering the results obtained, two-dimensional (2D) ERT data collected in a restricted area using Wenner-alpha array along 41 parallel lines were inverted using 2D and three-dimensional (3D) tomographic inversion schemes. On the basis of the findings obtained from various GPR and ERT imaging techniques, the existence of one of the abscissa, displaying dimensional parameters being in good accordance with those of ones still standing on the west side of the survey area was clearly revealed. Moreover, some regular anomalies, which can be attributed to the remains of the watchtower in question and various wall ruins, were successfully traced from the GPR depth slices. The existence of an antisymmetric geometry for the consecutive archaeological structure under investigation was also determined in the survey area. Combining all of that information, a possible 3D virtual image of the military headquarters was then created, and this pointed out a small square quadriburgia characteristic of the structure investigated. Thus, we can conclude that the integration of GPR and ERT and imaging techniques used in the evaluation were quite effective to provide useful prior information for the subterranean targets in the non-excavated parts of the ancient city. An archaeological evaluation by trial trenching is therefore required to confirm the results of the archaeo-geophysical survey in the investigation area.

“…Regarding other monumental structures, GPR was successfully applied to monitor fractures and cavities in tombs [98] and statues [99,100]. Ancient masonry arch bridges were also investigated with GPR, which revealed interesting information about hidden arches and former shapes, in addition to other structural details such as thicknesses and the materials' zonification [101][102][103].…”

Thanks to its non-destructive, high-resolution imaging possibilities and its sensitivity to both conductive and dielectric subsurface structures, Ground-Penetrating Radar (GPR) has become a widely recognized near-surface geophysical tool, routinely adopted in a wide variety of disciplines. Since its first development almost 100 years ago, the domain in which the methodology has been successfully deployed has significantly expanded from ice sounding and environmental studies to precision agriculture and infrastructure monitoring. While such expansion has been clearly supported by the evolution of technology and electronics, the operating principles have always secured GPR a predominant position among alternative inspection approaches. The aim of this contribution is to provide a large-scale survey of the current areas where GPR has emerged as a valuable prospection methodology, highlighting the reasons for such prominence and, at the same time, to suggest where and how it could be enhanced even more.

“…In Solla et al (2012), horizontal and vertical accuracies of 8.5% and 2.8%, respectively, were obtained for the thickness estimation of stone blocks from 1 GHz GPR data. Kadioglu (2013) offers an example of GPR applied to monitor monumental statues of the Anitkabir mausoleum (Ankara, Turkey). Using a 1.6 GHz antenna, it was possible to reveal internal cavities and fractures.…”

This paper deals with the application of the Ground Penetrating Radar (GPR) method in the assessment of stone monuments. Compilation of published works and a discussion of their main findings are first addressed. Next, to show the potential of the method, a case study is presented aiming to assess the state of conservation of the rock necropolis of San Vítor de Barxacova (Ourense, Spain) consisting of 56 anthropomorphic graves carved into the natural rock. Fieldwork was carried out using a GPR system equipped with a 2.3 GHz central frequency antenna. The main goal of this study is to provide an effective approach for the detection and localization of internal damages such as fractures and voids. New amplitude-based 2D and 3D imaging strategies are presented aiming to improve damage detection. A new approach was also developed to digitize the extracted information into a point cloud format, thus improving the possibilities for 3D visualization with the surrounding environment. Although a total of 39 graves were surveyed, only 13 graves are included in this paper due to their singularity and relevant results. The potential of using GPR tests for the assessment of the conservation state of monumental stone structures is also discussed.
