The challenge in cables, pipes & underground infrastructure
Why inaccurate detection and registration lead to excavation damage and remedial work
In many projects, detection, surveying, and as-built registration are performed using various tools and methods. This leads to discrepancies in coding, settings, and completeness. The results do not align perfectly with design or management systems, necessitating additional checks and corrections. This increases the risk of deviations in location and depth, resulting in excavation damage, remedial work, and unreliable handover to contractors or managers.
Better workflows for detection, data collection, and handover
Our solutions help you detect & register more accurately, record more consistently, and deliver data that is immediately usable in design and execution.
Standardized detection and measurement methods
With uniform detection and measurement methods, you record location and depth predictably. The results integrate directly with design and execution, preventing excavation damage and remedial work.
Immediately usable for design and management
Detection results, locations, and as-builts are delivered with the correct structure, references, and coordinates. You can proceed immediately with design, permitting, or handover, without additional conversions.
Less remedial work and a lower risk of error
Standardized data streams limit deviations in location, depth, and connections. This prevents duplicate work and accelerates both as-built documentation and execution.

Frequently asked questions
Short answers to the most common questions about our solutions and how they fit into your workflow.
How do you ensure that location and depth are recorded reliably?
We utilize fixed detection and measurement processes with controlled settings. Measurements are linked to a known reference frame (coordinates and elevation), supplemented by field checks and verification points. This creates a single consistent baseline, independent of the equipment used or the executing party. This makes location and depth demonstrably accurate and repeatable, even over longer routes or in projects involving multiple teams.
Can you provide detection and as-built files in the format we use?
Yes. We configure your detection and surveying solutions according to the requirements of your CAD, GIS, DSP, or management system, including metadata and attribute structures. We coordinate this in advance with applicable as-built and handover standards, such as NLCS, KLIC specifications, and internal asset guidelines, ensuring that the data you collect can be recorded in a legally and technically sound manner. This allows detection and as-built files to be imported or managed directly, without conversions, correction rounds, or interpretation differences between departments or contractors.
Do you provide support in setting up our detection and data collection workflow?
Yes. We assist in setting up your methodology: from detection methods, coding, and reference frames to quality controls and system settings. During onboarding and training, we ensure that every team follows the same steps and that the workflow is applied consistently in the field. As a result, location, depth, and connections remain consistent and traceable, regardless of the operator or project phase.
