The 2012 DT-DICT (Building without destroying) reform in France aims to prevent damage to utility networks. This legislation places heavy constraints on stakeholders because it requires them to georeference all networks in the vicinity of construction work with centimetric accuracy by 2032, everywhere in the country. Patrice Lemire, CEO ...

Abstract:The total cost of underground infrastructure damage in Canada during excavation work is estimated to be over $1 billion dollars annually. The primary cause of these damage incidents is the lack of reliable information on the location and other information about buried utilities and other infrastructure. The Canadian Underground Infrastructure Register project is intended to improve the current damage prevention process by providing access to reliable data t...

Due to aging and lack of accurate utility location information, there is significant underground congestion and conflict. This results in increased operational risk especially at waterway, transportation, and utility crossings. The IMU Mapping methods are able to mitigate these risks by providing accurate digital as-built positional data at trenchless crossings, constructed via HDD methods. Unlike other technology mapping solutions, which rely on sending signals below ground, in-line IMU M...

GIS platforms are typically populated with XYZ coordinates with a point spacing of 1 meter or more. in fact, most traditional land surveying techniques, like GPS, often have a point spacing of 3 meters or more, and that is understandable given the procedure to obtain these points. But have you ever wondered what amount of detail is lost when increasing the point frequency? Well, in this seminar, Otto Ballintijn will demonstrate the impact point frequency has on pipe detail usin...
