Invisible and indispensable. Fiber optics, electricity, gas and water grids are the lifelines of every industrial nation, without which modern life would not be possible. Despite this, they are still treated in the same way today as they were 50 years ago. This leads to massive damage that directly affects not only our national economy, but also each and every one of us. DeepUp is revolutionizing the way we see and understand underground infrastructure – to enable us all to live safely and sustainably in a booming infrastructure world.
get in TouchThe increasing expansion of underground grid infrastructure poses enormous challenges for the civil engineering industry worldwide. These include, above all, the constant cost and efficiency pressure to handle new underground line construction projects. At the same time, expectations of safe and uninterrupted grid operations are rising. For every construction project, accurate and realistic documentation of the underground infrastructure with precise positioning information is essential. Due to the low level of digitization, a large part of the operational grid construction business still lags behind other industries, especially with regard to data acquisition, data quality and data management.
Often, operators have no knowledge of the exact nature and location of their underground infrastructure. This is also the reason why lines and cables are often damaged during civil engineering work. In addition to repair costs, there are billions of annual economic costs for lost sales, environmental damage, traffic disruptions and increased insurance premiums.
In Germany alone, over 360,000 km of new underground infrastructure is laid every year – with a strong upward trend. This poses immense challenges for grid documentation.
A split second – this is the time it takes for a line damage to be caused by mostly inadequate grid documentation. In total, this sums up to 64 million line damages per year worldwide.
With our patented technology, we enable satellite-based precision surveying in seconds – directly on site by construction workers without any surveying knowledge. The documentation results are produced directly afterwards with the help of our artificial intelligence. In this way, for the first time, harmonized and person-independent grid documentation is available in a previously unknown 3D quality.
