Quays, yards and reclaimed ground

Ports & Reclaimed Land

Understand land movement risk across critical coastal and port infrastructure.

The problem

Reclaimed ground consolidates for decades. Ports operate on it continuously, and the settlement that matters is slow enough to be invisible between surveys yet fast enough to damage quay structures and pavement.

How we approach it

Estate-wide measurement across operational areas, tracking consolidation rates and differential settlement without interrupting cargo movement.

What you get

  • Consolidation rates across the whole estate
  • Differential settlement between structures identified early
  • Maintenance planned on measured behaviour
  • No disruption to port operations

01

Reconstruct the baseline

Years of archive radar are processed before anything new is captured, so the first delivery already shows how the ground has behaved rather than only where it stands today.

02

Measure every pass

Each new acquisition is processed against the same reference, giving a continuous displacement history for every stable reflector across the asset and its surroundings.

03

Separate signal from season

Seasonal swelling and shrinkage is isolated from persistent movement, so a rate that warrants attention is not confused with ground that returns to where it started.

Rank and report

Structures are ranked by measured rate against thresholds you set, with the displacement history behind every flag available as evidence.
