Urban infrastructures are becoming more complex last century. In order to prevent third party companies from possible damages to infrastructural equipments and people, detection of underground pipeline and cable locations is very important, In addition, locations and positions of infrastructural elements with respect to each other must be known for the new infrastructural projects and for the process of operation and replacement of current infrastructure. Technology is developing rapidly, so there are a lot of equipments for the detection of pipeline and cable locations today. These equipments are working with two methods in general. One of them is electromagnetic detection method with electromagnetic induction, and the other is GPR (ground penetrating radar) method working with the principle of determining the underground structure and underground holes. Especially with the new equipments and computer algorithms developed in the last years, the locations of infrastructural elements with respect to each other are determined more accurately. In this study, two sample applications and results made for IGDAS (Istanbul Natural Gas Distribution Company) by using electromagnetic method and Ground Penetrating Radar method will be evaluated.
