Integrated Monitoring and Inspection for Tunnel Construction
At Sixense, we deliver advanced monitoring and inspection solutions that protect people, infrastructure and reputations during complex tunnel construction projects.
With more than 25 years of experience, including our legacy as Soldata, we specialise in risk mitigation for urban tunnelling environments. These projects often involve third‑party assets, live transport corridors and sensitive structures.
Managing Risk in Urban Underground Works
Tunnel construction demands continuous control of geotechnical, structural and environmental risks. This applies to TBM, NATM and cut‑and‑cover methods.
Contractors and asset owners rely on accurate, real‑time data to protect adjacent buildings and utilities. Monitoring also supports control of ground movements, settlement and vibration.
Environmental impacts are tracked to reduce disruption and maintain regulatory compliance. Reliable monitoring data also helps limit claims and contractual disputes.
We integrate data from a wide range of sensors into a single, centralised platform. Raw measurements are transformed into actionable insights for site teams and decision‑makers.
Capabilities & Flagship Solutions
Our capabilities include:
- Geotechnical and structural instrumentation and monitoring
- Automated total station and displacement monitoring
- Satellite-based deformation monitoring using InSAR
- Environmental monitoring (noise, vibration, air quality)
- Real-time data acquisition, alerting and dashboard reporting
- Monitoring information management software (MIMS) – Beyond Monitoring
- Digital inspection and Geophysics
- Tunnel face mapping – Pika
Our proprietary technologies — including Cyclops and Atlas-InSAR — enable wide-area surveillance and early detection of ground movement beyond the immediate construction footprint.
By combining field expertise with digital innovation, we provide a fully integrated monitoring and inspection ecosystem that enhances safety, improves decision-making and reduces project risk.
