SERVICES
Whether you’re planning a small excavation or a large-scale construction project, Proscan is here to safeguard your site, protect your workers, and prevent unnecessary delays.
Underground Utility Locating
Our Underground Utility Locating Service is a two phase service - locating and mapping.
Proscan specializes in accurately identifying buried infrastructure using a suite of advanced tools, including cable locators, signal generators, signal generator clamps, reels, and sondes.This service is essential for ensuring safe excavation and construction projects by providing precise locations of underground utilities. Once the underground services have been identified they are mapped by recording their exact coordinates, depths and integrated into detailed georeferenced maps for long-term planning and record-keeping.
Benefits of Utility Locating:
- Locating gas lines, water pipes, and electrical cables.
- Identifying telecommunication lines and sewer systems.
- Mapping utilities for construction, excavation, and maintenance projects.
- Identifies potential hazards, such as unknown utility lines, before breaking ground.
- Reduces the risk of costly errors and delays during construction or excavation.
With a combination of cutting-edge tools and skilled technicians, our service delivers unparalleled precision in locating and mapping underground utilities, helping clients complete their projects safely, efficiently, and with confidence.
Ground Penetrating Radar (GPR)
Ground Penetrating Radar (GPR) is an advanced technology designed to identify subsurface irregularities and hidden objects.
The system is operated by emitting electromagnetic waves into the ground. When these waves encounter a subsurface object or material boundary with differing properties (like a pipe or rebar), the waves reflect back to the surface. The reflected signals are captured by a receiver, processed, and displayed as visual data.The composition of soil greatly affects how well GPR works; deep, wet clays may decrease accuracy, while dry, sandy soils offer the best environments. GPR’s can penetrate a variety of surface types, including grassland, concrete and tarmac. It can identify electrical cables ducts, as well as pipelines for gas, water, oil, wastewater, and surface water. GPR’s can also aid in locating rebar, tanks, trenches, voids, foundations, subsurface streams, concrete slabs, and missing manholes.
Why use our GPR service:
- Time Efficiency: Non-invasive method that quickly identifies underground features, reducing project delays.
- Cost-Effective: Minimizes costly damages and unnecessary digging.
- Improved Planning: Provides detailed subsurface data for informed decision-making and project management.
GPS Utility Mapping
Utility mapping is a process of identifying the location and labelling of utility mains which are located underground.
These mains may include lines for telecommunication, fibre cables, electricity, gas, water mains and wastewater pipes.Our GPS Underground Utility Mapping Service offers precise and comprehensive mapping of buried utilities, combining advanced detection technology with high-accuracy GPS systems. This service provides detailed georeferenced maps of subsurface infrastructure and above-ground infrastructure, helping you manage projects safely and efficiently. After utilities have been mapped, they can be retained for future construction projects, which will guarantee safety and provide clarity.
Our GPS Utility Mapping Service is completed by our by Utility Surveyors with extensive training and expertise that empowers you with the clarity and precision needed to manage underground utilities confidently, ensuring safety and efficiency at every stage of your project. Clients can avail of a range of utility map formats, such as PDF and DWG of 2-D and 3-D drawings.

Manhole Surveys
Our Manhole Card Documentation Service provides comprehensive and detailed records of manholes,capturing critical information essential for utility management, maintenance, and planning.
Manhole cards serve as a vital resource for understanding the condition and configuration of underground infrastructure.
Key Features of the Service:
- Detailed Data Collection:
- Ground Level and Invert Levels: Precise elevation measurements for accurate infrastructure planning.
- Pipe Details: Logs pipe size, material, and layout within the manhole.
- Duct Information: Records the number and type of ducts present.
- Overall Condition: Assesses and documents the structural integrity and condition of the manhole.
- Pictures: Photos provide the client with a clear idea of what is going on in the manhole condition wise and where conections are in relation to one another.
2. Standardized Reporting:
- Creates uniform and easily interpretable manhole cards for consistent record-keeping.
- Provides visual and tabulated data for enhanced clarity.
3. Customizable Options:
- Tailored data points based on project or client-specific requirements.
- Integration with GIS or utility management systems.
Our Manhole Card Documentation Service delivers a clear and detailed view of your underground assets, enabling efficient management and informed decision-making for any utility or infrastructure project.
Our GPR Data Processing Service transforms raw Ground Penetrating Radar (GPR) field data into actionable, easy-to-interpret maps and visuals.
This service ensures that the complex data collected during GPR surveys is analyzed, refined, and presented in a format that supports accurate decision-making for your project. Our service provides drawings in two and three dimensions using this data.
Our GPR Data Processing and Mapping Service bridges the gap between fieldwork and actionable insights, delivering the clarity and precision you need to make confident decisions for your subsurface projects.
