Default Locating underground conduit

A suggestion for other folks who will be burying a conduit: Take a bunch
of pictures before the trench is filled. It's good to include distances
to some fixed reference points -- you can write them with a marker on
big pieces of paper laid on the ground to get them in the picture. I
haven't yet used the pictures I took of mine, but I sure have made a lot
of use of the pictures I took of the uncovered walls of a home addition,
showing the locations of all the studs and wiring.

We always do this at work and lately started doing GPS surveys of new
buried cables marking GPS and survey data on the pictures, This comes
in real handy when you are paying for 4 guys and a rented backhoe to
stand around and wait for you to find a cable,
