KUALA LUMPUR, Aug 28 — A high-tech piece of equipment has been brought out to help locate missing Indian tourist Vijayaletchumy, 48, on Day 6 of her disappearance when the pavement caved beneath her feet along Jalan Masjid India here last Friday.

A receiver antenna then captures these reflected signals, which are used to generate a detailed image of the subsurface. Third, during rescue efforts, GPR aids in locating trapped individuals. By pinpointing voids and changes in material density, the radar helps rescuers identify where people may be buried, thereby improving the efficiency and effectiveness of their efforts.

In civil engineering, it is used to inspect infrastructure like roads and bridges for hidden issues such as voids and cracks.
