How do you survey a pipeline or energy corridor?

Pipeline and energy corridor survey requires a combination of topographic survey along the route and PAS 128 utility mapping to locate and verify existing services before any trenching or excavation begins. For longer corridors, UAV survey combined with GPS ground control is the most efficient method — capturing a dense topographic dataset along the full route in a single pass. Mobile mapping using our CHCNAV AU20 vehicle-mounted LiDAR system is also applicable for road-accessible corridors, capturing a complete corridor dataset at road speed. We advise on the most appropriate methodology for your specific route and ground conditions.
