Case studies

Putting the physics to work

How the Anubis Labs approach is applied in demanding environments, from the intensively studied Giza Plateau to complex urban infrastructure, and what satellite radar can reveal beneath each.

An extreme test environment

The Great Pyramid Plateau

The Great Pyramid Plateau, subsurface radar interpretation

Context

The Giza Plateau is one of the most intensively studied sites on the planet, decades of archaeological, geological, and geophysical research. Any subsurface interpretation here must withstand extraordinary scrutiny.

How the technology is applied

Existing satellite radar archives of the plateau are processed with Harmonic PolSAR, interpreting subsurface structure directly from radar phase history, without drilling, ground sensors, or any field deployment.

What it shows

It demonstrates how the approach can be applied to characterize subsurface structure in a highly complex, heavily documented environment, using only data already collected from space.

Why it matters

If the method can be applied in one of the most constrained and studied environments on Earth, it can be applied anywhere.


From test environment to real-world use

Urban & Infrastructure Environment

Urban & Infrastructure Environment, subsurface radar interpretation

Context

Urban and infrastructure environments present complex subsurface conditions, overlapping signals, and dynamic surface behavior.

How the technology is applied

The same physics-based framework is applied to satellite radar over a complex urban setting, combining surface deformation analysis (PSInSAR) with subsurface interpretation (Harmonic PolSAR).

What it shows

It illustrates how the approach extends beyond iconic test sites to noisy, dynamic environments, supporting infrastructure-monitoring and risk-assessment use cases.

Why it matters

It shows the method is suited to complex, real-world conditions, not only static archaeological sites.
