Abstract
A commercially available proton precession magnetometer (PPM) was used to investigate the detection of containers buried in a prescribed manner at a si
The results indicate that the PPM should be able to detect and delineate any typical dump site with predominantly steel (ferromagnetic) drums. In the u
The ease of deployment combined with the reliability, sensitivity and cost-effectiveness makes the PPM surveying a very promising nondestructive testin
