Officers will use radar penetration equipment to look for signs of soil disturbance while mechanical diggers will carry out full excavations. Trained sniffer dogs will also be used to search for human remains. The main target is a fenced-off wasteland area the size of three football pitches 100 yards from the Ocean Club apartment where her family was staying, the Daily Mail reports.
The new search operation, which could last up to a week, was instigated by Prime Minister David Cameron after Portuguese police failed to find Madeleine.
Little Madeleine, 3, went missing on May 3, 2007, while her parents Kate and Gerry were having dinner with friends at a nearby tapas restaurant.
The Scotland Yard team also intends to interview eight Portuguese nationals. The costs of the work will be met by Scotland Yard, BBC reports.
