Electromagnetic pipe and cable locating uses a transmitter to induce an electromagnetic signal onto a metallic pipe or cable, which is then traced along its path using a receiver. This method accurately maps the horizontal alignment and depth of buried metallic utilities including water pipes, gas lines, electrical conduits, and telecommunications cables. For non-metallic pipes, we use GPR as a complementary technology. Our locating equipment can differentiate between multiple utilities in close proximity and provides depth measurements to guide safe excavation planning.
