Utility Mapping: A Google Earth Map of Every Mark
Paint fades in a few weeks. The map does not. Every mark we place can be logged with GPS and delivered as a KMZ file that opens in Google Earth on any phone or computer.
What you get
A record you can open next year
Every mark, positioned
Each line is logged with GPS as it is marked, color-coded by utility type, with notes on anything we could not confirm.
Opens anywhere
KMZ opens in Google Earth on a phone, tablet or computer. Shapefile is available for GIS and CAD users.
Photos with it
A photo log of the marks as placed, so the crew that digs next month sees what the crew that marked saw.
Ready for the next project
Property managers and districts keep the file and send it with the next 811 request or contractor bid.
Want the map with your locate?
Ask for the KMZ when you book, or add it to any visit. Firm number within one business day.
FAQs
Utility mapping: common questions
What is the map, and what is it not?
It is a map of where we marked, positioned with GPS, so the record outlasts the paint. It is not a survey; it shows the marks and nothing else.
Can I add a map to a residential locate?
Yes. Ask for the KMZ when you book and it comes with the visit.
What have you mapped?
From the job log: a campus-wide locate for a school in Telluride, sixteen water valves for a property manager in the Denver Tech Center, and a parking lot in Boulder ahead of EV charging.
