Subtrace maps water, gas, electric, and sewer utilities in real time. Aggregates 811 data, private lines, and depth information into one live view — so you know exactly what's underground before the first shovel hits dirt.
Private utilities — the lines on your site that aren't owned by the city or utility company — are invisible to the 811 system. About 65% of on-site utilities fall into this gap.
Many municipal utility records are decades old. Utility lines shift from soil movement, repairs, and new construction. What the map shows and what's actually in the ground often don't match.
811 flags tell you where a line is approximately, but not how deep it runs. A gas line marked at 18 inches can actually be at 3 feet — and directional drilling doesn't know the difference until it strikes.
Pulls in 811 ticket data, municipal records, and field locate reports into a single unified layer. No more switching between five different systems to piece together what's underground.
The 65% of underground lines that 811 doesn't cover — your private laterals, campus utilities, site-specific infrastructure — are mapped using field data and contractor contributions.
See not just where utilities run, but how deep they sit. Color-coded by estimated depth so you can plan your excavation approach before you break ground.
Works on the laptop in the site trailer, the tablet in the field, and the phone in your hand. Real-time updates when locators file new data or utilities are exposed.
Every underground line rendered as a distinct, color-coded layer. Water in blue, sewer in green, gas in yellow, electric in red. Toggle layers on and off, zoom into the work area, and see exactly where your excavation path intersects with critical infrastructure.
Know what's in the ground before you trench, directional drill, or pothole. Reduce strike risk, avoid rework, protect your crew.
Site planning and civil design backed by accurate subsurface data. Specify trench paths that avoid utilities before construction begins.
Push as-built data to a live map, reduce mislocates, and give field crews a single source of truth for your network assets.
Digitize aging utility records, streamline 811 coordination, and give inspectors live data during infrastructure projects.
Subtrace is building the comprehensive underground utility map for every excavator and contractor in the United States. Every water line, gas main, electric conduit, and sewer lateral — visible before you break ground.
