WHY IT MATTERS

A former PG&E engineer is leading a startup that is developing a mapping system for underground infrastructure.
The system aims to provide a comprehensive view of underground utilities and construction projects, similar to how Google Maps represents the surface world.
The startup has recently secured a $26 million Series A funding to expand its customer base and streamline processes for utility and construction work.
