Utility Locating Applications for 130 W. Kingsbridge Road

On 6/18/21, AmeriscanGPR provided a utility locating survey at 130 West Kingsbridge Road. The purpose of the survey was to scan certain areas in order to locate any utility lines that could potentially interfere with excavation in the future. In order to locate the underground utility lines, we used ground penetrating radar (GSSI) and electromagnetic detection (RD 7000) technology. GSSI GPR is a subsurface imaging tool that’s great for locating the position of metallic/non-metallic objects like gas, communications, and water and sewer lines. The RD 7000 cable and pipe locator is equipped with a power detection mode, which allows it to detect the energy present on live electrical lines. In order to locate non-electrical lines, the RD 7000 uses a transmitter to apply a distinct signal directly on the line.
