Utility locators, construction
professionals, environmental firms and surveyors often need a
reliable way to non-destructively locate subsurface targets prior
to digging, trenching, conducting site assessments or mapping.
GPR is the most viable tool available for these professionals
due to its accuracy and ease-of-use. These key points make it
a necessary tool for damage prevention on construction sites.
With GSSI’s high-resolution
antennas, even small subsurface targets are located in real-time
and can be seen at depths ranging to 18 feet or more through
natural or manmade surfaces. Unlike radio frequency locaters,
GPR produces an image that displays the exact location and depth
of both metallic and non-metallic subsurface utilities. GPR images
can even be viewed in 3D. The technology is successful in a variety
of difficult applications, such as the location of plastic and
terracotta pipelines, water and sewer lines, cable, voids, tree
roots and underground storage tanks.
Construction Professionals Use GPR and EM For:
- Utility detection - metallic and non-metallic
- Utility positioning
- Environmental remediation
- Damage prevention
- Turf assessment
- Void location
