Radiodetection, Trimble collaborate to improve underground utility mapping accuracy
(UI) – Radiodetection and Trimble are collaborative to bring survey-grade accuracy to underground utility mapping. Through the integration of Radiodetection’s RD Map+ application and precision locator products with the Trimble Catalyst DA2 GNSS system, the solution streamlines utility-locating workflows to provide high-accuracy measurement capabilities to create underground utilities maps in a single field operation.
Data collected with the Radiodetection’s RD Map+ app and precision locators automatically sync with high-accuracy location measurements collected by the Trimble Catalyst DA2 GNSS system. By streamlining this connection, field workers can accurately digitize underground utility-line locations and reduce reporting errors.
This integration advances utility measurement workflows by giving workers the capability to accurately represent the utility asset in a digital format. This streamlines the operation, maintenance and construction process whenever utilities are involved.
“Accurate geolocation is critical to the operation and maintenance of underground utilities and public infrastructure,” said Stephanie Michaud, Strategic Marketing Manager, Trimble Surveying & Mapping Field Solutions. “By adding survey-grade capabilities to existing utility workflows, this collaboration creates a connected solution that provides confidence and reliability during the data capture process.”
