- Mapping contamination and pollution plumes
- Mapping voids beneath highways, roads and pavements
- Highways pavement investigations
- Locating buried structures, including unexploded ordnance
- Locating mine shafts, galleries and natural cavities
- Locating buried utilities

- Landslide investigations
- Pipe-route and new road/bridge surveys
- Mapping Quaternary (glacial) sediments
- Geohazard and glaciology investigations
- Mapping bedrock structures (solution features, faults, etc.)
- Groundwater resource evaluation
- Ground stiffness seismic investigations
- Rippability test for quarrying
- Dredgability testing of marine sediments
- Sea floor sediment characterisation
