Floodbanks are to protect nearest region of those rivers from high water level. Spring - sloppy roads or torrential rains cause very often that a level of water in those rivers increase and lead to flood. The flood most often is a result of bad technical conditions of floodbanks. It means that proper conditions of floodbanks have strategic meaning for protection of people lives and their properties. This article presents results of research of the flood bank structure carried out with classic geological method and with the GPR radar. Measurements were carried out on the flood bank of the Odra river in Wroclaw. The results show the appropriateness for applying the radar method to the preliminary assessment of the technical condition of embankment.
