Geophysical Research: New Sector of Activities of MOBACT
MOBACT, a pioneer in the field of technical services, is proceeding with a significant expansion of its activities, inaugurating the new sector of geophysical studies. Guided by innovation and specialization, MOBACT aspires to meet critical needs in infrastructure and development projects, offering high quality and precise services.

Specialization and Technology in Geophysical Research
The new MOBACT team for geophysical studies consists of specialized professionals with long experience in the field. Among them are PhDs in Mining Engineering from the National Technical University of Athens, who bring deep knowledge and practical experience to the subject. The combination of scientific training and advanced technologies, such as ground penetrating radar (GPR), ensures the accuracy and reliability of the results.
Geophysical Survey: Importance of the GPR Method
Geophysical surveying using the GPR method is an invaluable tool in the construction industry, especially for infrastructure projects. This technology allows for the non-destructive investigation of the subsoil, providing accurate and detailed information on the existence of underground networks, such as pipes, cables, and fiber optics. This is crucial for avoiding damage to existing infrastructure during excavations.
At the same time, the use of GPR contributes to the optimization of project design, reducing the time and cost of work. The ability to create georeferenced maps provides engineers with valuable data for the accurate design and execution of work. In today's world where sustainability and efficiency are vital, GPR is a key factor in the success of construction projects.
Recent Project: Collaboration with Kieffer Tek
MOBACT recently completed a geophysical study on behalf of Kieffer Tek, with the subject of “Geophysical investigation for the identification of existing roadside networks in the area of the Municipality of Spata, at Athens Airport”. This collaboration was a successful example of our new specialization.

Objectives – Geophysical Research
The main purpose of the study was to accurately map underground utility networks and other infrastructure, contributing to the optimal design and execution of construction works. Specifically, it focused on identifying:
- Water and gas networks.
- Medium and high voltage currents.
- Fiber optics and other critical infrastructure.

Methodology
The study was implemented in two main phases:
- Design and Measurements
- Use of ground penetrating radar (GPR) to collect data from the subsurface.
- Creating a grid to take accurate measurements over a two-day period.
- Processing and Presentation of Results
- Capture data via GPS RTK for absolute georeferencing.
- Creation of georeferenced maps that include the findings of all sections.
In addition, our team carried out on-site marking of critical points, thus facilitating the immediate utilization of the results by the engineers.
Final Result
The project was successfully completed, providing:
- Avoiding damage: Accurately locate underground networks, preventing accidents and delays.
- Precise design: Providing georeferenced maps to support the design of new infrastructure.
- Process optimization: Support of the overall marking and excavation process.
