Lucion renews membership with the European Ground Penetrating Radar Association (EuroGPR) reaffirming our commitment to delivering the highest quality underground utility detection services to our clients.
EuroGPR is dedicated to raising standards within the Ground Penetrating Radar industry across Europe. The association advocates for members’ rights, provides a unified voice on licensing and safety matters, and promotes best practices in GPR operation. Membership includes equipment manufacturers, suppliers, and professional survey operators.
As a EuroGPR member, our specialist land and building surveying business, Lucion Survey Ltd, demonstrates our dedication to maintaining the highest industry standards in GPR technology and practice.
Why EuroGPR Matters
Underground utility strikes remain one of the most significant risks in construction and excavation projects. As infrastructure becomes increasingly complex, with more non-metallic utilities like plastic pipes and fibre optics, the need for advanced detection methods has never been greater.
GPR uses electromagnetic pulses to create detailed 3D images of subsurface features without excavation. It identifies plastic and metallic pipes, fibre optic cables, drainage systems, concrete structures, voids, cavities, and changes in soil composition, providing a complete picture of what lies beneath your site.
Our EuroGPR membership demonstrates our dedication to maintaining the highest European standards in GPR practice. This means when you work with Lucion Survey, you benefit from cutting-edge technology operated by professionals who adhere to rigorous industry best practices and ethical standards.
Commenting on our renewal, Will Vennard, Business Unit Director at Lucion Survey Ltd said:
“Our EuroGPR membership reflects our commitment to excellence in underground utility detection. For our clients EuroGPR delivers assurance that they’re working with surveyors who maintain the highest professional standards and use the most advanced technology available.
This membership, combined with our PAS 128 compliance and industry accreditations, gives our clients confidence that they’re receiving the most comprehensive and accurate subsurface intelligence to keep their projects safe and on track.”
Why Use GPR?
Traditional detection methods struggle with non-metallic utilities that are increasingly common in modern infrastructure. GPR bridges this gap, ensuring you have complete knowledge of underground services before breaking ground – preventing costly strikes, delays, and safety incidents.
Our GPR technology detects both metallic and non-metallic underground utilities with up to 90% accuracy and identifies:
- plastic water and gas pipes,
- fibre optics,
- drainage systems, and;
- subsurface features that traditional methods miss.
Additionally, due to GPR Surveying being a non-invasive survey, no excavation is required resulting in minimal disruption to your site. Rapid data acquisition keeps your project on schedule whilst providing the comprehensive intelligence you need to avoid costly utility strikes and delays.
Working With Confidence
Our renewed EuroGPR membership is part of our ongoing commitment to professional development and technical excellence. Whether you’re planning construction, excavation, or infrastructure projects, our expert GPR surveys provide the underground intelligence you need to proceed safely and efficiently.
Combined with our Ofcom Ground Probing Radar Licence (0996045/1), PAS 128 compliance, and membership of The Survey Association, our EuroGPR membership reinforces our position as industry leaders in underground utility detection.
