I thought these days it was less digging and more radar/sonar type stuff? Trying to preserve the original site or something.

That would usually be done before digging. Only after learning all you can through deep soil scans and confirming structural integrity so as to not have it break upon moving it. Then you may dig it up.

likely yes. I was in university in the late 90s. My knowledge is very out of date.
