Locating with Induction Method

Induction method is used when we do not have an option to directly connect onto an asset, IE: Limited or no access. We achieve this by placing the transmitter on the ground and send an electromagnetic signal into the ground to latch onto our assets, this will only work with conductive materials. There are limitations…

What is a GPR?

GPR stands for Ground Penetrating Radar, and works by transmitting a pulse of radio waves into the ground. This pulse is reflected back to the surface by any objects it encounters, such as buried pipes, cables and other utilities. By measuring the time it takes for the reflected signal to return, we can determine the

What is Utility Locating?

Utility finding is frequently essential if you plan to do an excavation, whether you’re doing a home improvement or managing a huge civil project. Despite the fact that excavation work is common, it is significantly hazardous than many people believe. Gas lines, telephone lines, and water pipelines, to name a few, are among the vital

What is Non-Destructive Digging?

What is Non-Destructive Digging, and how does it work? Non-destructive digging, also known as hydro excavation or vacuum excavation, is a popular excavation method used in both residential and commercial settings. While non-destructive digging (NDD) is largely regarded as the safest method of excavation, vacuum excavation provides a quick, efficient, and cost-effective alternative. Non-destructive hydro

What are the QL’s all about? And why do we use them?

Quality Levels for underground asset locating was developed as part of the Australian Standards -5488.We use standards everyday in many different fields of work from building a house, constructing a road or designing a consumer product. This ensures that everyone works to the same standard at any given time but it also creates a form
