GPR system: Radar Systems Zond Aero 500 "NG"
Versatile terrestrial/airborne GPR built for DJI M350/M300 RTK, deployable on a cart, tow rope, or the drone itself.
Universal ground-penetrating radar for terrestrial and airborne surveys, using real-time sampling (RTS) with advanced onboard digital signal processing for a high signal-to-noise ratio.
The Aero 500 NG can be run on a wheeled cart, dragged with a tow rope, or flown on a drone. It targets the DJI M350/M300 RTK — note it is not compatible with the newer DJI M400 (use the Zond Aero 600 for that).
