OUR STORY
Utility detection for avoidance and mapping
Uncovering Data, Digitalise Reality
Surveyors, utility companies and contractors, now more than ever, need accurate, highly reliable, and up-to-date information – available for immediate use. Using the latest technology, detecting underground features becomes a simple and efficient task, increasing your safety and the protection of buried utilities. Our detection solutions provide a truly streamlined process from the field to the office, and back again, able to cover the entire utility detection, avoidance and mapping workflow with integrated solutions.
Cable avoidance
Undertaking any excavation will inevitably bring site workers into close proximity to underground utilities. Consideration should always be given to knowing the exact location of all buried utilities before and during the excavation process.
How to locate utilities – 6 levels of utility detection
Continuously changing environments and increasing populations bring the need to construct more buildings and renovate existing ones. We can see the change easily by looking at the infrastructure. Speciality utilities must be maintained or repaired continuously. The main challenge for this change is not knowing the accurate position of the utilities.
How cable locators work – Principles of buried utility detection
Undertaking any excavation will inevitably bring site workers into close proximity to underground utilities. Consideration should always be given to knowing the exact location of all buried utilities before and during the excavation process. To safeguard against utility strikes, a cable locator is used for detecting the presence and proximity of buried utilities.

Utilities Detection and Mapping
A utility map shows the positioning and identification of buried pipes and cables beneath the ground. Combine mapping process with a topographical survey and the results will provide you with a comprehensive detailed map of utilities.
Leica DS2000 Utility Detection Radar
There’s a lot going on underground that you need to know about before you ever start to dig. The Leica DS2000 utility detection radar finds all potential threats, including non-conductive pipes and fibre optics.
IDS GeoRadar Opera Duo Utility Detection Radar
IDS GeoRadar Opera Duo is a smart and integrated solution designed for utility detection and mapping, available in two versions: 2 or 4 wheels, capable to detect any type of pipe material at different depth.
uNext
The uNext platform offers an all-in-one utility detection software platform 100% customized for Opera DUO and DS2000. Designed to operate directly on-site maximizing user experience and intuitiveness, this software offers an easy to use of external devices (GNSS, Total Station, Cable Locator).
DX Office Vision
DX Office Vision is Leica Geosystems’ utility post processing software that allows DS2000 users to map digitally the detected underground utilities in a simple way by converting GPR data into CAD drawings.

Uncover utilities, safer, faster and digitally
Utility location, as the process of identifying and labelling utility mains that are underground, is a growing concern. For this reason, the market for utility locating equipment is evolving and growing.
How to choose the utility detection instrument
Uncovering underground utilities requires the use of different methods and products to fit different situations. There is a variety of technologies that can be used for underground utility detection.
Changing cities demand better utility mapping
Building a new house on the street, changing telecom cables to fiber optics or putting power lines from air to underground means changes in infrastructure.
Extensive 3D utility mapping
An extensive utility detection and mapping process allow an accurate and complete recording of underground utility assets reducing the risk of third-party damage. The use of multi-frequency and multi-channel radar technology, permits to scan and map all the underground assets both in narrow and extensive areas with a fast and easy process with very high accuracy and significant resource reductions.
Stream C
Stream C is the compact array solution for real-time 3D mapping of underground utilities and features. It is able to detect the buried pipes and cables automatically. Stream C ensures higher productivity: surveys only need to be performed in one direction to detect both longitudinal and transversal pipes.
RIS Hi-Mod
RIS MF HiMod is a modular, robust, multi-use GPR system capable of scanning small and large areas in a short period of time and provide an accurate 3D view of the subsoil with a high resolution and depth penetration thanks to the integrated dual frequency antennas.
Stream EM
Stream EM is a vehicle-towed radar solution for extensive 3D mapping of underground utilities and features for utility locating and mapping of wide road surfaces. Stream EM leverages data collection speed with only one scan for both longitudinal and transversal pipe detection.
