HGI–Dam Assessment Service

hydroGEOPHYSICS Inc.

The monitoring and maintenance of earthen dams is an ongoing and critical process to ensure the integrity of these structures and to prevent failure and the potential consequences. hydroGEOPHYSICS Inc. (HGI) provides a suite of cutting-edge technologies to monitor earthen embankments and tailings dams and identify hazards to these structures, such as seepage, void formation and foundation issues. HGI’s methodology delivers many improvements over traditional dam inspection and monitoring surveys as geophysical methods allow the company to build an internal “picture” of the conditions within a dam in a noninvasive manner, providing high-resolution imaging across the entire structure.
