Michael Twohig, DGT’s Project Manager for Subsurface Mapping, was recently featured in an article on Geospatial World looking at the increasing prevalence of advanced technology like Ground Penetrating Radar (GPR), Electromagnetic Location (EML) and Building Information Modelling (BIM) in geolocating utility networks and construction hidden underground.

These technologies help reduce the risk to workers and create a more accurate picture of what’s going on below the ground’s surface, making construction projects easier to plan, design, and execute.

“Accurate digital maps based on systematic surveys of underground infrastructure are critical for the numerous professionals in the AEC industry, asset owners, state and local government agencies and military organizations to help with all aspects of engineering, construction, operations and maintenance (O&M), so as to make informed decisions in their respective disciplines,” Mike said.
