Task
Locate and map buried utilities in and around an area where crews would be trenching to run gas lines for a new apartment building.
PROBLEM
- The owners of the apartment complex did not have accurate maps of the buried infrastructure on their property

- There were likely other utilities in the excavation area servicing the rest of the complex and adjacent homes and businesses
Solution
- GPRS utility locating services provide a complete, and 99.8% accurate picture of the buried infrastructure on job sites
- GPRS Project Managers use complimentary technologies like ground penetrating radar and electromagnetic locating to ensure repeatability and accuracy of subsurface investigations.
- SiteMap® facility & project management platform ensures vital infrastructure data is securely accessible 24/7 from any computer, tablet, or smartphone
Benefits
- GPRS located and mapped the gas lines the client was looking for, as well as several other previously unknown utilities running through the intended excavation site
- This data was available to the owners of the apartment complex, as well as their contractor and their crew, ensuring seamless communication and collaboration throughout the project’s lifecycle
- Contractor was able to trench for the new gas lines without damaging existing utilities
