By balancing growth and sustainability, we are shaping a future where infrastructure remains safe, efficient, and environmentally responsible—today and for generations to come.
Environment
Minimising impact. Maximising responsibility.
Geomatikk plays a key role in reducing environmental risk in society. Through our core services, we help prevent damage to underground infrastructure, reducing the chance of environmental harm from leaks, spills, or construction errors. But our efforts go beyond prevention—we’re working actively to lower our own operational footprint and contribute to greener industry standards.
What we’re doing:
- Optimising resource use – From digital tools to smarter routing, we’re improving efficiency in daily operations to cut energy use and reduce emissions.
- Greening our fleet – We’re gradually shifting to electric vehicles and exploring more climate-friendly mobility solutions.
- Scaled “check-before-you-dig” services to reduce emissions, prevent material waste, and protect land.
- Engaging employees – Building awareness and encouraging daily practices that support a sustainable workplace culture.
We know that even small choices matter, because when added together, they move the whole system in a greener direction.

Environmental Story
Prevents Environmental and Societal Costs
Avoiding Damage, Preserving Land
Preventing utility strikes is more than an operational necessity—it’s a measurable contribution to public safety, environmental sustainability, and economic resilience. Geomatikk’s coordinated field services model not only protects underground infrastructure but also significantly reduces carbon emissions, financial costs, and service disruptions.
Social Story
Strengthening Leadership from Within
In 2024, Geomatikk launched a training journey focused on strengthening inner skills for our C-level and country leaders. The goal? To build a culture of psychological safety, empathy, and engagement—starting from the top. When leaders grow, so does the well-being of the entire organisation.
Governance Story
Cybersecurity as a Cornerstone
As a digital-first company, Geomatikk takes cyber risk seriously. With strict internal protocols and ongoing training, we safeguard sensitive data and protect the systems that keep society running. For us, strong governance includes a strong digital defense.
Environmental Impact Goals
In 2023, Geomatikk took a major step toward climate accountability by submitting its Greenhouse Gas (GHG) inventory to the SBTi Target Validation Team. The submission was validated in 2024 with the 1.5°C global warming pathway, reinforcing our commitment.
To ensure progress, Geomatikk will continue tracking, reporting, and optimizing emissions data, ensuring that reductions are aligned with global best practices for climate action.
