Description
Summary:[...]analysis of GPR images (time sections, reflection profiles) obtained after processing requires great experience and knowledge, and thus the interpretation stage is loaded with subjective assessment of the noted anomalies. The main aim of the geophysical survey of the relics of renaissance castle at Wyszyna was to recognise the layout of this scantily preserved structure and to obtain information about the arrangement and thickness of the embankment-rubble layers and degree of wall preservation, thus enabling the determination of the preservation state of architectural relics not preserved on the surface. In the second stage, the geophysical data in the form of interpreted time slices (= GPR amplitude maps) and reflection profiles (= radargrams) were compared with available data obtained in previous years during architectural studies, historical queries and results of archaeological surveys. Running average (calculating the running average), Dewow (similar as previous procedure, used for removal of low-frequency noise), DC - Shift (subtracting the constant component of the GPR signal), Subtract-mean (removal of average component), Gain (enhancement of GPR signal), Move start time (correlation of first occurrence of georadar wave), Bandpass frequency (frequency filtration), Background removal (removal of random noise and direct waves), Avarage xy filter (summing of georadar routes) and F-k filtration (elimination of interference waves, whose velocity differs significantly from the velocity of usable reflexes).
