What's Under There? Mapping the Invisible Infrastructure Beneath Our Cities

Wednesday, April 22, 2026 | 12:00pm-1:00pm Eastern Time | Free Webinar

Underground utilities, aging pipelines, buried infrastructure — the assets we can't see are often the ones that matter most. As digital transformation reshapes how we plan, build, and maintain the built environment, subsurface data is finally getting the attention it deserves. Yet mapping what lies below ground remains one of the most complex and consequential challenges in the geospatial world. In this webinar, experts discuss the tools, workflows, and real-world challenges involved in bringing underground infrastructure into the digital age — from ground-penetrating radar and subsurface modeling to data integration, standards, and liability.

Key Takeaways:

  • The current state of subsurface mapping technology — what's working, what's not, and where the gaps are
  • How organizations are building digital workflows around underground data, from collection to integration with GIS and asset management systems
  • The role of data quality and accuracy standards in reducing risk and liability
  • What's on the horizon for subsurface modeling and 3D underground infrastructure

Who Should Attend:

Utility managers, civil engineers, GIS and geospatial professionals, transportation and infrastructure planners, municipal and government agency staff, and anyone involved in the design, construction, or management of underground infrastructure.
