Ground Penetrating Radar Investigations of Landslides: A Case Study in a Landslide in Radziszów

The article presents the results of research of the activated landslide in Radziszów in 2010. The study focused on the evaluation of engineering geology conditions, preceded by geophysical surveys. It mainly focused on the GPR method using the IDS georadar equipped with antennas in the frequency range of 100 MHz. Antenna selection was based on archival research which showed that the depth of occurrence of clays, where the roof can be a potential slip surface, ranges between 3-10 m below the surface.

GPR method applied allowed the course of the potential slip surface to be determined and the results obtained significantly correlated with the results of engineering geology tests carried out.
