Complete Survey Systems / Odin
Overview
The Odin GPR survey system was designed for shallow surface applications that focus on small targets and require the best possible resolution. To achieve this, the Odin systems use the high-end capabilities of the Akula 9000 control units, high frequency antennas from the GCB-series and a selection of customized accessories. It is simple to switch to Odin from another system, U-Explorer for example, because the systems are highly scalable. Both use the same SVC-820 carts, many similar accessories and control unit (unless an Akula 9000C is required). This gives the GPR operators a freedom of having access to many different systems without needing to own a large storage department. The Odin systems provide excellent resolution in shallow areas, which is what the system is aimed for. The level of detail depends on the included antenna, but the common factor in all Odin systems is that the targets will be easily and quickly detected. There are three different Odin systems, depending on the depth and resolution needs of the survey. The table below shows the differences in more detail, but please do not hesitate to contact our support engineers to help you choose the perfect system configuration for your survey requirements.

Odin System Configurations
System | Antenna | Control Unit | Penetration Depth* | Resolution/target size** | Details |
---|---|---|---|---|---|
Odin-1000 | GCB-1000 | Akula 9000B | ~1m | 0.05m | All purpose system for inspection that require more depth than the rest of the Odin systems. |
Odin-1500 | GCB-1500 | Akula 9000C | ~0.6m | 0.025m | A balanced selection between the penetration depth and resolution. |
Odin-2000 | GCB-2000 | Akula 9000C | ~0.4m | 0.01m | System for targeting very shallow areas, providing extremely detailed reflections from the available targets. |
