Subsurface asset mapping and GIS integration

Multi-frequency Ground Penetrating Radar (GPR) for multi-utility infrastructure

The challenge

Municipalities face operational, legal and safety risks when records of subsurface infrastructure are missing or fragmented across departments. Our non-destructive GPR survey scans and verifies water, electrical, gas and fibre networks, builds 3D spatial profiles and loads verified attributes straight into your central GIS.

3.0 m

Scope and core objectives

01

Multi-utility survey

Scan rights-of-way to trace water, electrical, gas and telecommunication pathways without ground disruption.

02

3D attribute verification

Log X, Y and depth (Z) with verified material, utility class and diameter.

03

Unified GIS sync

Format and sync attributes into municipal GIS layers, removing data silos and replacing lost records.

04

Strike prevention

Deliver utility maps and technical audit reports that protect assets during construction and upgrades.

Capabilities

Multi-spectrum scanning

200–400 MHz probes deep trunks to 3.0 m; 500–800 MHz isolates shallow micro-trenching, fibre micro-ducts and electrical junctions.

Material identification

Detects steel and ductile iron, PVC, HDPE and asbestos cement pipes, live cables, gas mains and glass-fibre conduits.

Positioning

Real-time processing with RTK-GPS alignment into structured database attributes.

Strike and outage prevention

Prevent strikes on live electrical, gas, fibre and water lines during roadworks and third-party excavations.

Coordinated upgrades

One spatial database for cross-departmental planning of repairs and expansions.
