Additional Applications


Realtors take note: two underground fuel tanks that were thought to have been removed.


By using the most advanced equipment, we are able to display usable data on-site in real-time.


Two shallow electric lines buried in pavement.


Where to put the drainage line?
The Highway Surveyor of this town needed to install a stormwater drainage line.
Not here, radar showed ledge at 19 inches below the pavement.
Another route was found, no blasting needed.


Archaeology scans require a precise grid layout referenced from a central datum.
Careful layout of the grid is critical for systematic excavations.


This was a good place for the foundation. Radar showed no subsurface ledge.


Sewer line installation. Radar showed fractured ledge
and not consolidated rock.
