An engineering firm bringing non-destructive diagnostics to Africa's infrastructure.

GeoradarTech is a German company being set up, based in Thuringia, specialising in the inspection of roads, railways, airport pavements, buried utilities and concrete structures.

OUR MISSION

See beneath the surface, decide on facts

Infrastructure first deteriorates where we cannot see. We use GPR and ultrasound to measure the internal condition of pavements, tracks, utilities and structures, without destroying them.

We deliver precise data, positioned to the centimetre and directly usable by managers: maps, plans, reports. Our goal is to help you maintain in the right place and at the right time.

We target the African market, entering the continent from Côte d'Ivoire. A field team based in Abidjan prepares and follows our campaigns.

OUR WAY OF WORKING

Three commitments

Recognised methods

We rely on international practices and standards (IDRRIM, ASTM, ICAO, NF S70-003, ACI, EN) so that our reports are understood and accepted by your partners and funders.

Suitable equipment

Each method uses the instrument best suited to the problem, whether we own it or deploy it for the campaign.

Usable results

Georeferenced data, ready to enter your plans, your GIS and your digital models, with results explained without jargon.

IN THE FIELD

A local team in Abidjan

Our campaigns in Côte d'Ivoire are prepared and followed by a field team based in Abidjan, trained on GeoradarTech's equipment and protocols. They know the contacts, the site constraints and the local logistics, and provide a direct link with you before, during and after each campaign.

Let's talk about your network or structure.
