Locate management system

We’ll wrangle the locates

We coordinate Call Before You Dig tickets, public locates, and private sweeps, then deliver GPS-mapped information your crew can actually use.

The problem we take off your plate

Locate chaos is a project risk

You shouldn’t need a second full-time job just to keep tickets, PDFs, and paint marks in the same conversation. Public locates are necessary. They are also often incomplete for private plant, and they rarely arrive as one clean drawing. That’s the scramble we handle.

Structure Scan has been producing GPS-referenced locate information for years. Locate management is how we turn that field work plus the public process into a single, usable package instead of a folder of mismatched files.

Chaotic, mismatched data

Public locates arrive as scattered PDFs, emails, and sketches that rarely align, forcing guesswork about what’s underground.

Paperwork overload

Tickets, reviews, and tracking consume hours, introduce errors, delay projects, and risk fines.

Unreliable marks

Inaccurate, vague, or confusing locates put crews at risk and invite utility strikes.

Short-lived locates and delays

Tickets expire quickly. Marks fade or get destroyed, triggering re-submissions and downtime.
