What we found
Utilities and features classified — type, depth, evidence attached.
Investigation
Understanding the site before work begins.
A digital site intelligence report from multiarray GPR, electromagnetic locating and reality capture. Findings with evidence. Coverage you can see. Unknowns written down. Based in Adelaide. Working Australia-wide.
Uncertainty
What we found. What we did not. What remains uncertain.
What we did not find
Zero in a covered area is a result. It is written down as such.
What remains uncertain
Residual unknowns, stated plainly. Not buried in a footnote.
How confident we are
An Aus-OMI rating. Separate from AS 5488 quality level.
What should happen next
Where to expose, avoid, or proceed. The decision, not a maybe.
Coverage + limits
Completeness is visible rather than assumed.
Planned extent, acquired extent, processed extent, final interpreted. Exclusions, reduced-quality zones and no-response ground are named. If it was not covered, the report says so.
Integrated site
The visible site and the subsurface, brought together.
One coordinated view of surface structure, interpreted utilities, unknown features and critical zones — spatially related, not layered as an afterthought.
Direct evidence
From radar response to a defensible interpretation.
Each significant finding carries its evidence: the B-scan, the pick, the depth, the type. Interpretation confidence is rated. AS 5488 quality level is assigned feature by feature. The three are never collapsed into one number.
Reliability
Not every line carries the same level of evidence.
AS 5488 quality level
The evidence source: records, surface correlation, geophysical detection, or exposed verification. Assigned feature by feature. GPR or SLAM alone does not establish QL-A.
Interpretation confidence
How strongly the evidence supports the call. High is earned. It is never a substitute for quality level.
Positioning accuracy
Spatial uncertainty of the measurement. Processing consistency is not absolute position. Reported separately.
How we investigate a site
Spatial control, then evidence, then one environment.
- 01
Establish spatial control
Positioning confidence is set before anything is interpreted. Precision, registration and interpretation stay separate.
- 02
Detect and investigate
Multiarray GPR and electromagnetic locating — conductive, non-conductive, unknown. The ground is imaged, not guessed.
- 03
Capture existing conditions
Reality capture of the site as it is: surface, assets, geometry. Indoor and GPS-denied ground included.
- 04
Interpret and correlate evidence
Each significant finding is tied to a radar response, a depth, a type, a confidence. Methods check each other.
- 05
Integrate into one spatial environment
GPR, EMI and the site model in one coordinated frame — not three files that almost line up.
- 06
Report findings, confidence and remaining uncertainty
A digital site intelligence report plus the spatial package. What we found, what we did not, what remains uncertain, what should happen next.
Platform
The instruments behind the report.
Multiarray GPR
IDS GeoRadar Stream DP
Thirty channels, dual polarisation (19 VV + 11 HH). Equalized scrambled Technology (EsT) holds depth and resolution in the same pass. One operator. uMap in the field.
Reality capture
CHCNAV RS10
GNSS RTK, laser SLAM and visual SLAM on one handheld. Site context where satellites drop out. The world the subsurface sits in, in the same frame.
Processing
IDS IQmaps
The office layer. Real-time processing, tomographic slicing, 3D visualisation and georeferenced feature extraction. Radargrams become a coordinated model.
Digital record
The report is the front end of a reusable spatial package.
- 01
PDF report
Decision support, communication, and the project record.
- 02
Interactive 3D
Surface and subsurface in one environment, for review.
- 03
Classified utility models
Communications, drainage, electrical, water, sewer, gas, unknown — for design coordination.
- 04
KML
Lightweight spatial review.
- 05
Reality capture
Site point cloud for context and measurement.
- 06
Project metadata
Coordinate system, datum, accuracy statement, processing record.
Applications
The same investigation, other jobs.
