EngD position: Standardizing Fieldwork and Data Management for Utility Mapping

EURAXESS hosting organisation · Multiple European countries

In this EngD project, you will design a standardized protocol for fieldwork and data handling of GPR measurements at the University of Twente’s Utility Mapping Site (UMS). The UMS provides an ideal environment for testing and evaluating utility detection technologies. While various GPR systems exist, a method for systematically collecting, documenting, and comparing measurement data is lacking. You will outline measurement procedures, key metadata, and performance indicators to maintain consistent measurements across different systems and environmental settings. By following this protocol, you will conduct measurement campaigns and help develop a benchmark dataset. This dataset supports the evaluation of GPR systems used in utility mapping and future data-driven innovations in that field.
