OUR MISSION

Digitizing the

Underground

Digitizing the World’s Underground Infrastructure

Subterra turns previously unsafe, unscalable, or even unknown territories into opportunities to become safer, smarter, and more sustainable.

Using photogrammetry and other imaging technology, we build 3D models of some of the world’s most hard-to-reach places without the need for human involvement.

We then catalog those models and use machine learning to analyze them and forecast their performance, placing unprecedented power in the hands of the best and brightest civil engineers.

Our Founding

Subterra (Subterra AI) was founded in 2018 by underground 3D mapping expert Robert Lee. Robert walked many miles with his specialized 3D mapping system, helping local governments inspect the condition of critical sewer pipes in a more objective way. He was accustomed to treading through waist-deep sewage in order to do his job, and Robert was determined to invent a smarter, safer way of working.

Company Values

Partners

Our platform and scanning hardware was created in partnership with innovative public utilities and civil engineering firms.
