GroundScope Locator
AI-powered subsurface verification that gives excavation crews confidence before they break ground.
Overview / Problem
Risk Doesn’t End with 811
Excavation typically follows a familiar process.
Call 811
Perform GPR or other scans
Break ground
Yet uncertainty can still remain beneath the surface.
Across the United States, a buried utility is struck every six minutes. Even after markings and traditional scanning, hidden hazards can still exist below ground.
What has been missing is a simple way to verify underground conditions right before excavation begins.
GroundScope
The Final Verification Step Before You Dig
GroundScope is an AI powered subsurface verification tool designed for everyday excavation work.
It adds a fast verification step right before digging begins, helping crews confirm underground conditions at the exact point of dig.
GroundScope does not replace 811 or GPR. It works alongside them to provide real time underground insight when it matters most.
How It Works
Scan. Verify. Dig.
Step 1: Scan the Area
Move GroundScope across the intended excavation zone. As the device scans the ground, it captures subsurface signals from below the surface.
Step 2: Get Instant Results
GroundScope analyzes the scan data in real time using AI powered detection. Clear feedback is displayed directly on the device so you can quickly understand whether potential utilities or anomalies may be present.
Step 3: Mark & Dig With Confidence
Use the results to mark areas of concern and guide excavation planning. With better visibility into what may lie beneath the surface, you can proceed with greater confidence and reduce the risk of costly surprises.

Frequently Asked Questions
Frequently Asked Questions
What does GroundScope do?
GroundScope is a subsurface verification tool that helps crews confirm underground conditions before excavation begins and creates documentation that can be reviewed and shared across teams.
Does GroundScope replace 811?
No. GroundScope complements 811 markings by adding a verification step before excavation begins.
Does it replace Subsurface Utility Engineering (SUE)?
No. SUE provides detailed engineering surveys. GroundScope helps verify underground conditions right before digging starts.
What utilities can it detect?
GroundScope can find buried pipes, wires, and irrigation.
When should GroundScope be used?
GroundScope is typically used after 811 markings and before excavation begins to verify underground conditions at the intended dig location.
Many crews also use GroundScope during excavation through progressive scanning to maintain visibility as digging continues.
How long does a typical scan take?
It depends on area size and required confidence level. A standard 10ft scan takes less than 30 seconds. Scan at a pace of 1ft per second. Then allow for the table to process the scan, which takes about 2-seconds per foot scanned.
Do I need a specialist to operate it?
No. GroundScope was designed for ease of use and most operators can learn the workflow in about ten minutes.
Can we use the hardware without the subscription?
The short answer is no. The Basic plan is required to access our AI and use GPS location.
How is GroundScope different from traditional GPR?
GroundScope is designed for fast verification directly at the point of dig. It focuses on ease of use and immediate feedback so crews can confirm underground conditions quickly without requiring specialized interpretation.
