See through the ground.
Digital mapping and documentation of your site, above ground and below.
Noryx combines underground utility detection, LiDAR scanning, aerial mapping and survey into one coordinated picture of the site, ready for planning and for execution.

The ground is the last part of a project nobody can see.
It is also the part that stops the job. These are not our numbers. They are the industry's own.
Sources are named beside the figures they belong to.
The technology is matched to the site conditions.
There is no single detection method that suits every soil and every service. We combine GPR, electromagnetic locating, ERT, LiDAR scanning, photogrammetry and RTK-GNSS according to the conditions on site and the purpose of the project.
We scan and document the site.
We tie every reading to real X, Y and Z.
We map the whole site from the air and the ground.
We build the unified model.
We hand over plans the authority accepts.

Three raw feeds go in. One unified model comes out, with every layer agreeing with every other layer.
- Scan-to-BIM
- Data alignment
- Noise reduction
One site drawn in three separated layers: the buildings and roads that stand on it, the ground beneath them shown in section, and the located services running under that, colour coded by type.

The same picture, from the office to the field.
Partial drawings, scattered files and competing versions produce mistakes and delays. Noryx holds the site and utility data in one environment, reachable from a desktop and from a phone, so the whole team decides on the same information.
Every layer is presented over the site documentation in one visual environment. You can stand on the site, see the route of a service against what is actually there, and decide on the spot.
BIM integrationBIM and RVT models can be brought into the same environment, showing existing conditions, the located services and the future design together.

You already run six platforms.
The average contractor runs 6.3 of them, and 81% say the stack itself is the problem. So the model is not another login for the field. It is a link. It opens in a browser, on a phone, in a trailer, and the person opening it needs no account and no training session. Your data stays yours and exports to the formats your team already uses.

What we will and will not promise.
Every finding is delivered with a documented confidence level, and in line with the limits of the technology, the ground conditions and how accessible the site is. The aim is not to promise that there are no surprises. It is to reduce the uncertainty substantially and give planning and execution a better basis to work from.
The questions engineers actually ask.
Honestly, not everywhere. Radar reaches roughly 18 metres in clean dry sand and about 6 metres in dense wet clay, and a saturated layer near the surface can block most of the signal. That is exactly why the pipeline runs five instruments instead of one. Where radar struggles we lean on electromagnetic locating and resistivity, we calibrate depth on site, and we tell you plainly which readings are strong and which are not.
We report to ASCE 38-22 quality levels, which is the industry's own scale, so you know exactly what you are holding. Geophysical mapping typically finds 10 to 50% more utilities than record based mapping. Where a line is critical, we verify it.
It depends on the size of the site, how dense it is and which deliverables you need. Because scanning, processing and modelling are run as one continuous process, work that normally takes weeks can often be shortened to a few working days. An exact schedule is set after we look at the site and the scope of the project.
It takes three feeds that do not naturally agree, point clouds, radar slices and mesh geometry, and forces them into one coordinate truth. Align puts them in the same space, clean strips the noise and the ghosts, register locks them to survey control, and merge produces a single model where the pipe under the slab is in the same place in every view of it.
No. The model is a link. If someone can open a web page, they can walk your site.
Then you hold a documented, dated survey of what was found and what was not, with the confidence level for each reading. That record is what you want in your hand if anyone disputes the site later. We do not claim a site is clear, we report what the instruments could and could not establish.
Tell us about the site.
An engineer answers, not a sales team. Send the location and what you are planning and we will tell you what we would capture and what it would take.
