Task

Perform underground utility scans over a vast majority of the plant – 4+ acres for electrical conduit installation clearances

PROBLEM

  • The client plans to add new electrical conduit across the entire facility
  • There were no current or accurate as-built records of the utilities on site

Solution

  • A team of GPRS Project Managers scanned and marked out all subsurface utilities over four acres of land
  • By following the guidelines of Subsurface Investigation Methodology (SIM), they used both ground penetrating radar (GPR) scanners and electromagnetic (EM) locators to locate any underground utilities
  • All the 99.8% accurate, field-verified, and RTK-positioned data was uploaded to SiteMap® (patent pending), GPRS’ infrastructure mapping software application, for almost instantaneous delivery to the client

Benefits

  • The client can now drill and install with confidence and avoid utility strikes
  • The client can access and securely share their interactive subsurface utility maps 24/7 via SiteMap®
