Services

Our team at Aristoscan provide a complete range of Ground Penetrating Radar for a full range of scanning information.   We provide services throughout the local area and greater Far North Queensland region. We offer services for domestic, commercial and industrial requirements, and have the expertise to handle any project.

Utility Mapping

This method utilises GPS assisted software that can map your utilities on a cartographic background with cm accuracy.

Utility mapping eliminates the loss of the utility locates due to the loss of paint markings. It is also on your records for the life of the utility, so you only have to locate that service once.

For example, if you have a utility location completed for a job and that job is delayed for some reason, you may lose your markings from the locating which was marked out using spray paint. With the utility mapping service Aristoscan provides, you have no issues. You simply refer back to your site map which was completed on that given day.

For those larger projects, Aristoscan has a multi-array GPR unit, which utilises GPS with a cartographic background to provide cm accuracy of scanned utilities. This system scans approximately 900mm wide and produces 3D scans in a single pass.

An array GPR system is simply the term applied to a GPR system containing multiple transmitting and receiving antennas deployed over a spatial volume with fixed spatial locations defined for each element. Array GPR systems can be used to map large areas quickly and enable true 3D visualisation of the subsurface.

GPR arrays also enable faster data collection of a much richer dataset compared with traditional 2D systems. For example, a 32-antenna array with 4 cm antenna spacing can collect data 32 profile lines at 4 cm spacing in one swath, whereas a 2D system would need to collect 32 individual lines at 4cm spacing to replicate the result of an array. This is simply not economical. In saying that, there are circumstances where a single antenna unit is still required, so we still have this available for that very reason.
