How cable locators work – Principles of buried utility detection
Hexagon Geosystems Blog
by Renata Barradas Gutierrez
1M ago
Global expansion necessitates the expansion of existing and the development of new utility networks, which inevitably requires companies to undertake excavations to verify utility positions. Any operation to break ground will inevitably bring site operatives in the proximity of live underground utilities and services, the most common being water, gas, power, telecommunications and increasingly fibre networks. As a result, consideration should always be given to knowing the exact location of all buried utilities before and during the excavation process. Damage to utilities through excavation w ..read more

When executing a site survey, monitoring construction progress, or creating models, accuracy is the key to success — whether you’re looking at an entire site or certain aspects of a location. Site surveys have come a long way from hand-recorded measurements. Manual measurements always come with the risk of human error, which has driven the popularity of 3D laser scanning in recent years. 3D laser technology provides you with a point cloud of data that can be used in multiple applications with a high degree of accuracy, and the data can be collected quickly and efficiently. Two common applicat ..read more
