With SiteMap®, all designated team members can access straightforward and valuable information on symbol and marking meaning, utility company name, type, depths, and extra markings like previous locates. Everyone is now empowered to make informed decisions about construction and excavation work.
Subsurface Utility Location
Subsurface utility location is a crucial task in construction and excavation projects. By accurately mapping the location of subsurface utilities, contractors and engineers can save money in costly repairs and ensure the safety of their work sites and the public.
Using ground-penetrating radar (GPR) and electromagnetic locators, subsurface utility location involves non-invasive techniques that are both effective and efficient. GPR detects subtle changes in the ground using radar waves, while electromagnetic locators use radio waves to determine the depth and presence of subsurface utilities. SiteMap® uses the resulting data to create detailed and informative maps and diagrams of specific areas.
By investing in these specialized methods and technologies, you can enhance the quality and safety of your construction and excavation work.
