Underground Utility

EML Survey

Electromagnetic Location Surveys are carried out to determine the location of some underground utilities, such as power cables.

We use Electromagnetic Location (EML) surveys to accurately detect and mark underground utilities within a survey area. This technique enables our clients to visualise the location of buried services in real time, as utilities are clearly marked on the ground during the survey process.

Benefits of EML Surveys

  • Effective Detection of Magnetic Utilities: EML technology can locate most underground utilities that emit a magnetic field, including power cables, communication lines, and some types of metal pipes.

  • Depth Estimation (When Possible): If conditions allow, an estimated depth is provided alongside the utility location, giving you valuable spatial information for planning and excavation.

  • Non-Destructive and Efficient: EML surveys are quick, non-intrusive, and help reduce the risk of damage to underground infrastructure during construction or maintenance projects.
