Every excavation starts with one critical question: what’s beneath the surface?
Join this week’s Gemini Call to hear how the National Underground Asset Register (NUAR) is tackling one of the UK’s biggest infrastructure challenges - giving authorised users instant access to underground asset data to support safer, faster and more efficient works.

In this session, Carsten Roensdorf will share how NUAR is helping to streamline access to buried asset information across England, Wales and Northern Ireland, and why this matters for everyone involved in planning, construction, maintenance and utilities coordination.

What you'll discover:

Why NUAR matters now
Understand the scale of the challenge NUAR is addressing - from fragmented data held by hundreds of asset owners to the operational, safety and cost impacts of delayed or incomplete information.

How NUAR works in practice
Learn how NUAR provides a standardised, digital map of underground pipes and cables, accessible in one place, including on-site via mobile browser for authorised users.

What it means for your organisation
Explore the benefits for infrastructure delivery teams, asset owners and excavators, including improved safety, faster decision-making, better data sharing, and opportunities to improve data quality across the ecosystem.

Why attend?

If you work in utilities, highways, local government, construction, engineering, geospatial, or digital twin delivery, this session will give you a practical look at how a nationally significant data service is enabling better outcomes across the infrastructure lifecycle.

You’ll leave with a clearer understanding of:

what NUAR’s progress means for the future of connected infrastructure in the UK

the value of standardised underground asset data

how secure data sharing can support safer digging and project delivery
