https://lnkd.in/gdKA6Z9r A?Gas Line Hit?For The?Second Time?In A?Week! Once is bad but twice in a week? This isn’t just an accident—it’s a pattern. A construction crew has struck a gas line for a second time in Biloxi, disrupting businesses, forcing evacuations, and putting lives at risk. These incidents aren’t just inconvenient—they’re dangerous. They shut down operations, impact public safety, and could have catastrophic consequences. The question is:?Why are we still relying on outdated, inaccurate utility data when modern solutions exist? It’s time to stop gambling with safety.?Know what’s below. Protect workers, businesses, and communities. #SafetyFirst #UtilityMapping #ConstructionTech #PointMan

https://lnkd.in/gjh5ywa9 Another preventable gas line strike—when will we start asking why?? A road crew in Biloxi, MS, struck a gas line, prompting evacuations and emergency response. The fire chief’s statement??"This happens from time to time."?But should it? Every utility strike puts lives at risk, disrupts businesses, and drains emergency resources. Yet, these incidents are still treated as routine. We have the technology to prevent them. Precision mapping solutions like?PointMan??can provide real-time, accurate underground utility data—eliminating the guesswork that leads to these costly and dangerous mistakes. So, instead of accepting “this happens,” shouldn’t we be asking,?why is it still happening??And more importantly,?how do we stop it? #UtilitySafety #PrecisionMapping #Infrastructure #ProStar #PointMan #DamagePrevention

https://lnkd.in/gWQYX76T ?Another Costly Reminder: We Can’t Ignore What’s Underground The recent flood in a Kendall community after a utility crew struck a water main isn’t just a local disaster—it’s a nationwide warning. Water, gas, electricity, telecom—our underground infrastructure is a complex web, and one mistake can bring catastrophic consequences. It’s time for the industry to embrace?safer, smarter?technology. Because disasters like these?shouldn’t?be the norm. #SafetyFirst #PrecisionMapping #ConstructionTech #Infrastructure

https://lnkd.in/ggTfBX8Q A Global Crisis Beneath Our Feet: The Urgent Need for Utility Mapping A major gas leak in the UK has once again highlighted a global issue:?we don’t always know where buried utilities are until it’s too late. Every day, construction crews, engineers, and utility workers take on projects without complete, accurate, and digital records of underground infrastructure. The risks? Costly repairs, environmental damage, service disruptions, and, worst of all, threats to public safety. Because knowing exactly where critical infrastructure lies isn’t just convenient—it’s essential. #UtilitySafety #PrecisionMapping #PointMan #ProStar #GasLeaks #Infrastructure
