Buried pipelines are the most secure and efficient means to transport vital resources for our communities. A precise mapping of such infrastructures is a critical input to Geographic Information Systems (GIS) used to ensure the safety and integrity of these networks. The safety impact of such information is twofold: prevent any threat due to third-party excavations, and monitor any ground movement on unstable slopes (landslides) that could affect the pipeline structure.
