What is it?
The Exodigo Explorer is an AI-powered ground scanning robot that maps underground utilities before excavation using multi-sensor fusion — combining GPR, electromagnetic, and acoustic sensors with real-time AI classification.
Who is it for?
- Excavation and civil construction contractors on utility-dense urban sites
- Utilities planning capital works in areas with complex buried infrastructure
- Infrastructure project managers seeking to eliminate utility strike delays and costs
- Smart city and fibre rollout programmes requiring accurate existing infrastructure maps
Key specs
- Sensors: GPR + EM + acoustic fusion
- Output: 3D underground utility map
- AI: real-time utility classification
- Delivery: Exodigo cloud platform
- Coverage: ground survey walking pace
- Customers: AT&T, construction majors
How it compares
Vs traditional GPR: Single-sensor GPR produces ambiguous 2D hyperbola data requiring expert interpretation. Exodigo's multi-sensor fusion and AI classification identify utility type, depth, and routing with higher accuracy, reducing false positives and missed utilities.
Limitations
- Ground coverage speed limits productivity on very large sites
- Performance varies in highly congested multi-utility corridors
- Service model means no hardware ownership
- Accuracy limited by soil conditions affecting sensor penetration depth
FAQ
How much does the Exodigo Explorer cost?
Exodigo pricing is service-based and not publicly listed. Contact Exodigo for pricing based on survey area, utility density, and project scope.
What is the Exodigo Explorer used for?
The Exodigo Explorer is an AI-powered ground scanning robot that maps underground utilities before excavation, combining multiple sensor types including GPR, electromagnetic, and acoustic sensors to detect and classify buried pipes, cables, and conduits.
What are the key specs of the Exodigo Explorer?
The Explorer uses multi-sensor fusion combining GPR, EM, and acoustic sensors, processes data in real-time with AI to classify utility type and depth, and produces a 3D underground utility map delivered via Exodigo's cloud platform.
Who is the Exodigo Explorer designed for?
The Explorer is designed for excavation contractors, utility companies, and infrastructure project managers who need accurate underground utility maps to prevent costly and dangerous utility strikes during digging.
How does Exodigo compare to traditional utility locating?
Traditional utility locating relies on single-sensor methods (EM locators or GPR alone) and produces 2D line marks. Exodigo's multi-sensor fusion and AI classification produce a 3D map with utility type identification — significantly reducing strike risk on complex sites.
