Underground Infrastructure Mapping in Burnaby, BC

Industry-standard quality levels: a directly observed or strongly imaged utility maps at higher confidence than one inferred from records. Design engineers use the levels to decide where potholing is still needed — honest mapping says what it knows and what it suspects.

Yes — campus-scale mapping over multiple mobilisations is a core service. Work proceeds zone by zone around operations, and the deliverable assembles into a single layered site plan.

Design teams stop carrying utility-conflict contingencies for unknowns, and construction stops eating strike delays. On typical BC institutional projects the mapping cost returns several times over in avoided change orders.

Yes — accurate main and service locations are the prerequisite for efficient acoustic leak surveys. Mapping plus leak detection in one program is how smaller BC municipalities tackle non-revenue water.

Burnaby sits on glacial till slopes with peat pockets around Burnaby Lake and Big Bend. Till slopes give clean 2–3 m penetration; peat and high water table near Burnaby Lake and Big Bend cut effective depth — survey design accounts for it. We select antenna frequency to match — and where local ground limits radar depth, we pair GPR with electromagnetic locating, acoustic methods, or tracer gas so the survey objective is met regardless of soil conditions.
