		Utility detection with the Sensors and Software Noggin family is made easy by combining the versatile and intuitive Data Video Logger (DVL) with either the Noggin plus 250 or Noggin plus 500 transducer . The picture here shows an operator with a Noggin SmartCart equipped with a DVL and a Noggin plus 250 unit. The Noggin SmartCart has its own battery power supply. During operation the data acquisition is controlled by an Odometer which controls the commencement and cessation  of data acquisition, and enables precise location of utilities

• the Noggin is rugged, lightweight & compact for easy one person operation
• weatherproof, and will reliably operate from -40ºC to +40ºC
• the Noggin is fully-battery powered
• Noggin unit houses virtually everything you need for your subsurface surveys & minimal setup is required
• price of the Noggin is much lower than conventional GPR systems
• the Noggin can be used for numerous types of subsurface investigation which saves time & can reduce project costs
• Records data as bit maps, can be downloaded to a PC and inserted into reports

Included items:

• Noggin 250 unit
• rechargeable battery & battery pack
• General GPR software

Noggin Plus features:

In addition to the standard Noggin features

• Record the data in versatile digital format
• Record lines or grids of data
• Data can be downloaded to a PC and digitally processed and enhanced
• Produce depth slice maps or 3D cubes of data

Noggin Smart Cart System

The highly popular Noggin Smart Cart System simplifies your Noggin subsurface imaging surveys. The Smart Cart includes an integrated second generation digital video logger (DVL II), an odometer wheel, and battery, making it a truly complete unit. The cart has four wheels for easy maneuvering, and includes a sturdy frame to ensure longevity. The cart is lightweight and collapsible for easy shipping and storage.

The Noggin Smart Cart is truly interactive. As you survey the subsurface, data scrolls across the DVL Screen. When you have gone over an area that contains subsurface information you need to mark, you can back up with the cart, and the display cursor will show you the position you're interested in on the screen. Then you can accurately mark the ground at the exact position of the object. Once you've made your mark continue on with your survey. The Noggin Cart is so smart that it won't start collecting data again until you reach the position you previously stopped and reversed at!

The Noggin Smart Cart is a fully integrated system. Once you've set up the cart, turn on the power and start surveying. The built-in  software records your data in a chart-like scrollable image. The integrated odometer gives the chart an accurate distance measurement scale. There are virtually no user adjustments necessary and you don't have to be an expert. Just start pushing the Noggin Smart Cart around and you will quickly become a subsurface imaging pro.

Noggin Smart Carts are available for both the Noggin 250 ground penetrating radar system and the Noggin 500 ground penetrating radar system. The Noggin 250 Smart Cart can also be used with the Noggin 500 if desired, pictured here with the DVL II being used as the data logger..
