The Connected Construction Show

Join Host Matt Sprauge and guests Joe Eberly and David Horesh of 4M to hear how they are building the first digital map of subsurface infrastructure.

This “Google Maps for Subsurface” is a game changer when any stakeholder can pick a place on the map and see exactly what utilities are buried there. Currently we waste time and money collecting public and private records, using sensors, and sending out field investigators and still end up with surprises underground resulting in costly delays and potential injuries.

Listen in as Joe and David explain how a common source of truth for all subsurfaces is changing infrastructure projects.
