1. A above-ground system for evaluating a subsurface, comprising:

  • a ground penetrating radar (GPR) system configured to produce GPR measurements about subsurface features for a survey area;

    an electromagnetic sensor (EM) system configured to produce EM measurements about subsurface features for the survey area;

    a positioning unit associated with the GPR system and EM system, respectively, the respective positioning units configured to produce positioning measurements indicative of GPR and EM system position within the survey area; and

    a processor configured to receive the respective measurements from the GPR system, EM system, and positioning units, the processor configured to execute program instructions for associating the GPR and EM measurements with respective positioning measurements and producing data indicative of presence and location of the subsurface features using the position-associated GPR and EM measurements.
