🚨 INFRASTRUCTURE ALERT: What’s Lurking Beneath the Runway? 🚨

Yesterday, a massive sinkhole near Runway 4/22 at LaGuardia Airport ground travel to a halt, triggering over 200 flight cancellations and leaving thousands of passengers stranded.

While a visual routine inspection caught this one just in time to ensure safety, visual checks only show you a problem after the ground has already given way.

At Bigman Geophysical, we look deeper.

Sinkholes don't just appear overnight—they form silently over months as subsurface voids grow from water erosion, shifting soils, or aging infrastructure. We specialize in finding these hidden hazards long before they reach the surface.

How Bigman Geophysical prevents runway disasters:

Ground Penetrating Radar (GPR): Non-destructive, rapid scanning that maps out the subsurface beneath runways and taxiways, identifying hidden air pockets and voids without disrupting airport operations.

Electrical Resistivity & Seismic Testing: Advanced imaging to detect early moisture infiltration, soil softening, and geological vulnerabilities beneath heavy-load concrete.

Predictive Maintenance: Moving infrastructure management from reactive repairs to proactive prevention, saving millions in emergency fixes and avoiding costly travel shutdowns.

Don't wait for the ground to swallow your schedule. Let’s map the unseen and secure our runways.

Mapping the invisible: Why Bathymetry is a game-changer for our waterways.

At Bigman Geophysical, we’re going beneath the surface to help researchers and land managers see what’s actually happening underwater.

What is Bathymetry? It’s the measurement of underwater ground surfaces. By modeling these shapes, we can track exactly how water flows and how biology is affected.

Why does this matter to you?

Tracking Erosion: We can see where soil is moving and how it’s changing our marine ecosystems.
Environmental Health: Frequent measurements help us identify murky or brackish water caused by land drainage.
High-Resolution Data: We can track tiny, gradual changes over months to predict future environmental impacts.
Cost-Effective: It’s one of the most efficient ways to monitor structural and environmental concerns.

Whether it's natural shifting or human-led changes, we provide the clarity needed to protect our water resources.

Meet Andre from our team out in the field!

Whether it's utility locating, archaeological mapping, or structural assessments, we rely on high-precision technology to see what lies beneath. In this shot, Andre is utilizing Ground Penetrating Radar (GPR) integrated with GNSS/GPS positioning to ensure every data point is captured with centimeter-level accuracy.

Even in challenging terrain and thick leaf cover, our team is dedicated to providing non-destructive subsurface insights that keep projects moving forward safely and efficiently.
