Abstract:

To provide an automatic penetrometer which can automatically obtain positional information such as an address of a test location.

This automatic penetrometer, which comprises a liftable or lowerable platform 4 which is lifted/lowered along a support 3, a chuck 5 which is arranged on the platform 4, a penetration rod 7 which is held by the chuck 5, and a rotary drive means 6 for rotatively driving the chuck 5, acquires test data through a process for making a penetration rod 7 penetrate into ground. In that case, a radio wave from a GPS satellite is received by a GPS receiver 2 in a position wherein a penetration test is to be performed, and the positional information on the test position is identified from the radio wave. The positional information, which is identified by the GPS receiver 2, is filed as a test data file along with the test data acquired by the penetration test, and processed by a data processing means such as a notebook-size personal computer 30, so that the address of the test location and the like can be automatically obtained.
