Forensic investigations focused on determining clandestine buried weapons, narcotics or even homicide evidence, can be expensive, inefficient and depend greatly on prior information and the tools available. Geophysical tools have potential to improve these investigations, on the ground that they can detect shallow buried objects in a non-invasive way. This report studies the use of electrical resistivity tomography (ERT) in combination with ground penetrating radar (GPR) to detect buried objects at two different sites, both with conditions found here in The Netherlands. The first is a test site at the Technical University of Delft, The Netherlands. Here, two plastic barrels are buried, one is empty and the other is filled with metal rods. The second site is at the ARISTA Facility in Amsterdam, The Netherlands. Here, human cadavers are buried for forensic research. The ERT was used in two ways, the first was to produce 2 dimensional (2D) surveys, which were combined to create a 3 dimensional (3D) model. The second method made measurements that created a 3D model directly. For each the dipole-dipole array was used. At the TU Delft site the results for the 2D method showed clear resistivity anomalies at the locations of the barrels. These anomalies corresponded to clear reflections in the GPR radargrams. The results at the ARISTA facility are inconclusive due to damage in the instrument used. The grid designs made for both ERT methods could however be used in a continuation of this study, and future research should be done within this topic to improve forensic investigations.
