Abstract
A method for detecting positions of objects under a surface with respect to a reference Cartesian system having axes x and y, includes prearranging a GPR apparatus that includes a distance detecting unit for measuring a distance with respect to a not transparent object, a control unit, and a center of reference having coordinates xand yon the reference Cartesian system. The method further includes prearranging a first linear wall having direction parallel to the axis x, handling the apparatus on the surface, detecting a first measurement of distance between the distance detecting unit and the first linear wall, calculating the coordinate yof the center of reference, calculating a change of the coordinate yduring the step of handling, and associating a coordinate y=yto an i-th object detected, where yis value of the coordinate yat the detection by a GPR sensor of the i-th object.
