About GuidelineGeo History
Today, Guideline Geo is a global leader in our field. We have customers in over 100 countries and a long history of developing solutions to geophysical and geotechnological challenges.
The historical roots that support Guideline Geo stretch back to the start of the 20th century, with the founding of Aktiebolaget Elektrisk Malmletning (ABEM), a producer of electrical equipment for ore prospecting, in 1923. Shortly afterwards, Sveriges Geologiska Undersökningar (SGU), the company that developed the first electromagnetic loop for ore and metal detection, established an office in Malå, in northern Sweden.
The success story grew from there. By the 1950s, ABEM was Europe's largest geophysical consulting company, while parts of SGU eventually evolved into MALÅ GeoScience AB with a proud heritage of technical development and innovation, eventually giving rise to today's pre-eminence in ground penetrating radar (GPR).
ABEM and MALÅ joined forces in the early 1990's and were incorporated into Guideline Technology AB between 2007-2011. The group was eventually consolidated under the name Guideline Geo in 2012 as the world's premier provider of technological solutions for mapping and visualizing the subsurface.
ABEM is a global pioneer of geophysical solutions for customers working with crucial resources and infrastructure development within resistivity, induced polarization, electromagnetics and seismics. ABEM solutions should be the first choice for use in evaluating soil conditions, detecting and mapping groundwater, mineral exploration and infrastructure site investigations.

What is Utility Locating?
The ground beneath our feet in urban areas inevitably gets more and more congested over time with infrastructure comprising both underground structures and utilities. This, together with increasing urbanization and regeneration, aging infrastructure, climate change and flooding, are fueling a need for utility locating and better understanding of the subsurface conditions.
This is no easy task; utilities can, for example, consist of pipes, conduits, cables, tanks of differing material, size, and age. These utilities are buried at different depths in the ground which can be made up of widely varying natural and imported materials. The knowledge of both the location and depth can be lacking, due to obsolete, inaccurate, or non-existent subsurface maps. This lack of knowledge can lead to excavation or cutting in the wrong places, which in turn can cause serious damage, be dangerous, costly, and result in huge time delays.
