Whether it's archaeologists uncovering ancient city walls using LiDAR and Deep Learning or CNI Locates untangling a complex maze of underground utilities in Washington, the goal is the same: making sense of a digital haystack.

Ever wonder where a curiosity about technology can lead? At CNI Locates LTD, we love diving deep into new tech - and sometimes that leads us down a fascinating rabbit hole!

We’ve put together a special 5-part series exploring the intersection of cutting-edge tech and history. In Part 1, we dive into how archaeologists are using LiDAR to uncover ancient mysteries hidden beneath the surface for thousands of years.

From Mexico and Honduras to ancient China, join us as we explore the world and explain how this incredible technology is similar in principle to the GPR scanning we use every day.
