Subterra digitalizing utilities in a busy street of Zug

Utility detection experts know that capturing the data is just one step in the process. Processing, managing, and delivering the data are part of the workflow. Utility detection can be time-consuming, but the work can be completed efficiently with the right tools.

Subterra GmbH地下检测公司，在其建设项目的每个阶段都依靠德国，列支敦士登和瑞士的检测设备。具有高水平的数据准确性，该公司在地下供应线和结构中找到和地图。电缆探测器和其他各种地理雷达设备用于确定厘米的线。通过使用不同的技术，Subterra还可以检测非金属供应线。可以将检测线的位置直接标记在客户的地板上，作为经典2D计划或数字3D模型提供。

SUBTERRA was requested to digitise a street in the business district of Zug, Switzerland. The aim of the project was the acquisition and digitisation of the subsurface as a 3D model. This model will enableWWZ: Energie, Telekom, Wasser und E-Mobilitätto plan a new district heating pipe underground with a considerable reduction of openings of the street and project time, including blocking the road for traffic and CO2 pollution through excavators.

The road to digitisation

The challenges of mapping 400 metres of a busy street in Zug, where the underground is full of utilities (electricity, water, sewage, gas, communications, etc.) go beyond utility detection; it includes finding the different utilities and mapping them in a congested area.
SUBTERRA used theLeica Ultradetection system, including aLeica Geosystems DA发射器，要检测金属线，因为深度的确切确定尤其重要。

“我们使用了Leica Ultra电缆定位器to identify and mark the power and metal cables to have an initial overview of the underground utilities, we can give our customers information about the location of cables and metallic cables very quickly on-site," said Gordon Kopf owner of SUBTERRA.

团队还使用了IDS流c并在50 m长的项目段中收集了数据，以覆盖需要扫描的整个区域。
对于狭窄的区域，Subterra使用了Leica DS2000 utility detection radar。团队与GPR一起使用GeoMax Zoom 90机器人总站可提供地理作用和埋藏公用事业的精确位置。他们也Geomax Zenith 35pro可以测量不可能的垂直放置位置。

"Once we collected the data with the precision locator and GPR, which took us approximately 8 hours in total, we went back to the office and processed in just 20 hours the collected data with IDS GredHD and created the final report to deliver to the customer," said Gordon Kopf.

Full end-to end solution from data collection to delivery

使用完整的工作流以从六边形地理系统中检测到实用程序（Subterra）（bob体育报道www.subterra.ch) delivered a 3D model of the underground utilities from that street on time and budget and also allowed to open new business opportunities carrying out additional projects in Switzerland, Germany and Austria.
