• Operating Electromagnetic Locators (EML) and Ground Penetrating Radar (GPR) systems to accurately detect and trace subsurface infrastructure to PAS 128 specifications.
• Utilizing GNSS receivers and Total Stations to precisely capture utility marks and integrate geospatial positions into site control grids.
• Processing, interpreting, and drafting survey data using AutoCAD to produce detailed 2D/3D subsurface utility models and client deliverable drawings.
