There are a variety of such techniques- and I'm involved in some
ground breaking (haha) development on a method that works from fixed
wing aircraft. To say there is a market is an IMMENSE understatement.
Resources are white hot, and anything that helps find them is valuable
almost beyond imagination.

I thought that airborne Ground Penetration Radar had been used in
