When GPRS launched SiteMap® (patent pending) in 2023, we sought to eliminate communication silos in the construction and facility management industries by providing a single source of truth for all infrastructure data related to your projects.
Today, SiteMap® has more than 10,000 active users and houses data from over 200,000 sites across the country.
To further enhance SiteMap®, GPRS has partnered with Maryland-based archSCAN to improve our ability to aggregate and integrate our clients’ historical documentation with the accurate, field-verified data collected on-site by our team of specially trained Project Managers.
Founded in 2002, archSCAN provides document review, management and scanning services. They specialize in the process of converting hard-copy large-format drawings and small-format documents into electronic files and then uploading them into a document management system in the cloud or on-premises.
ArchSCAN’s team of archivists have worked with hospitals, universities, federal and state agencies, and more to organize, digitize, and manage their documents. They specialize in building-related documents, having digitized millions of blueprints and drawings. The archSCAN team has more than 150 years of combined experience.
ArchSCAN’s process and philosophy align perfectly with SiteMap®, which allows users to manage and customize their data according to their needs. Whether it’s utility layouts, as-built drawings, 3D models, floor plans, structural drawings, subsurface void information, drone imagery, sewer and manhole video inspection data, or under or above ground storage tank information, it’s all on one secure, yet easily accessible platform thanks to SiteMap® and archSCAN.
“ArchSCAN’s document solutions pair well with GPRS’ ability to deliver an updated view of facility infrastructure,” said GPRS Chief Strategy Office & SiteMap® Product Executive, Jason Schaff. “This partnership helps our clients take control of their assets by moving them away from incomplete records, inconsistent data, and poor communication.”
Explaining SiteMap® Pro
GPRS has tailored SiteMap® to meet the needs of various industries and disciplines through the introduction of several different subscription tiers for the service.
SiteMap® Pro gives you complete control over everything happening across your facility or campus. That’s every utility installation, every renovation, and every repair, all in one place.
SiteMap® Pro gives you what you need to manage your infrastructure from anywhere by securing your aggregated, mapped & layered data – from pre-planning through O&M and beyond. Thanks to GPRS’ partnership with archSCAN, this includes any existing documents you have and wish to digitize.
With SiteMap® Pro, you receive administrative access for as many as five people to utilize the data collected by GPRS, aggregated to provide constant updates on each of your projects as they occur.
While you may want or need to preserve existing documentation, you need to be sure you’re planning, digging, and building with accurate data. With SiteMap® Pro and archSCAN, you’ll be able to compare your existing as-builts with the field-verified data collected by our Project Managers, allowing you to plan, design, manage, dig, and build better.
SiteMap® 2.0 Works Better for You
In December 2024, GPRS further improved SiteMap®’s capabilities with the launch of SiteMap® 2.0.
This system-wide update streamlines the user interface, updates the appearance, and improves functionality for desktop and mobile applications. It adds features such as more intuitive search options, expanded export functionality, and faster point cloud processing.
“With the launch of Sitemap, our customers have found tremendous value in having their underground data along with their aboveground infrastructure in one spot,” said Dustin Snavely, Director of National Sales for GPRS. “These latest improvements do a great job of expanding on SiteMap 1.0. With 2.0, our customers will have quicker uploads, expanded mobile platform options, and increased ability to upload, increasing SiteMap’s ability to be your central platform for your infrastructure data.”

Frequently Asked Questions
What are the Benefits of Underground Utility Mapping?
Having an updated and accurate map of your subsurface infrastructure reduces accidents, budget overruns, change orders, and project downtime caused by dangerous and costly subsurface damage.
How Does SiteMap® Assist with Utility Mapping?
SiteMap®, powered by GPRS, is the industry-leading infrastructure management program. It is a single source of truth, housing the 99.8%+ accurate utility locating, concrete scanning, video pipe inspection, leak detection, and 3D laser scanning data our Project Managers collect on your job site. And the best part is you get a complimentary SiteMap® Personal Subscription when GPRS performs a utility locate for you.
Does SiteMap® Work with my Existing GIS Platform?
SiteMap® allows for exporting of data to SHP, GeoJSON, GeoPackage, and DXF directly from any user’s account that either owns or has a job shared to their account. All these file formats offer streamlined data portability and can be imported and utilized by other GIS packages if manually imported by the user. More information can be found at SiteMap.com.
