Radiodetection & Esri® Integration
COMING IN 2026: Radiodetection and Esri have partnered to unify underground utility locating and GIS. By connecting high-accuracy hardware directly with the ArcGIS platform, organizations can now capture, map, and sync field-verified utility data in a single, seamless workflow.
A Unified Workflow for Smarter Decisions
The integration eliminates the need to treat locating and mapping as separate steps. Using the RD8200SG, field crews can stream precise positions directly into ArcGIS Field Maps via Bluetooth, removing the manual data transfer and post-processing steps that traditionally slow down utility mapping.
-
Capture & Pair
Link precise underground utility locations with survey-grade GNSS positioning instantly. -
Direct Sync
Upload locate points directly to Esri feature layers, ensuring ArcGIS Online or Enterprise reflects near-real-time field updates. -
Single Interface
Use Field Maps to view existing GIS data, capture new positions, and update metadata—all while the locator is in hand.
Why This Integration Matters
Moving from a traditional "Locate → Paint → Paper Notes" cycle to a digital-first workflow delivers significant operational advantages:
Benefit |
Impact |
| Data Integrity | Higher confidence in utility records with "survey-grade" field verification. |
| Efficiency | Faster data handoff between field and office by eliminating re-work and digitization. |
| Risk Mitigation | Reduced utility strikes through precise, authoritative asset datasets. |
| Strategic Planning | Improved compliance and more accurate data for asset management and capital planning. |
Industry-Specific Impact
