A field technician cannot identify buried gas pipelines to avoid damaging them during installation, and has no tool to verify or locate utility lines on-site.
Existing solutions like calling a utility marking service (e.g., 811) provide marks before work starts, but when marks are missing or unclear, technicians have no mobile or on-the-ground tool to instantly verify buried pipes themselves, leading to dangerous guesses and work stoppages.
PipeGuard Field Locator
PipeGuard Field Locator is a mobile app that integrates with a low-cost electromagnetic pipe locator accessory to give pest control technicians real-time, on-site detection of buried gas lines and other utilities. It replaces guesswork and phone calls to the office, enabling safe, confident digging without waiting for utility markouts.
- Real-time pipe detection via Bluetooth-connected locator wand
- Visual overlay on phone camera showing approximate pipe location
- Auto-log detection reports with GPS coordinates for compliance
