Located in Seoul, DK GST is one of the leading companies in locating and mapping subsurface utilities in S. Korea. We have continuously monitored new technologies in both domestic and overseas, researched about characteristics of each instrument and how to optimize methods under domestic infra environments.
Currently, various metal and non-metallic pipelines and facilities such as water, sewage, gas, electricity, and communications are buried like spider webs. In Seoul alone, about 15 sites per day are dug up. Since pipes are not always buried as designed, pipeline damage, ground subsidence, and gas explosions during excavation have placed a heavy burden on our society in terms of cost and safety.
Therefore, accurate pipeline locating technologies are the most urgent task to prevent excavation accidents and optimize underground facilities management. In addition, it is possible to efficiently prevent the accidents by pinpointing the locations of damages in pipelines and preemptively replacing them. You can save tax payments, too.
In the past, DK GST purchased the equipments through domestic vendors linked to foreign equipment manufacturers, but they do not have any exploration experience and nor had specialized research institutes. Thus, technical supports and user training were very limited. In this regard, we began to sell as a vendor and willing to solve the most necessary part of the customer with proper technical support.
DK GST will not only import and sell equipment, but also contribute to the national GIS industry and social safety by establishing underground facility detecting & mapping standards, and developing underground facility management solutions. Please keep an eye on us.
Thank you.
