Penticton Locating FAQ

How is utility locating done in Penticton?

In Penticton, technicians combine electromagnetic (EM) line locating for metallic and tracer-wired services with ground-penetrating radar (GPR) for non-metallic pipe and concrete scanning. Penticton is served by municipal and water-district networks drawing on Okanagan-basin sources serving Penticton, and the locate is matched to the local network and ground conditions.

Does ground type in Penticton affect GPR?

Yes. Silt benches and alluvial fans between the lakes; rocky hillside grades. GPR performs differently in clay, silt and granular ground, so the survey is adapted to Penticton's conditions — and EM locating covers the metallic and tracer-wired lines regardless of soil.
