A drilling detection system may include a drilling detection circuitry including one or more detection processors configured to receive a vibration signal indicative of vibration associated with a drilling machine configured to drill holes into a substrate and receive a movement signal indicative of movement of the drilling machine relative to one or more positions on the substrate. The one or more detection processors may also be configured to determine vibration associated with the drilling machine, and determine movement associated with the drilling machine. The one or more detection processors may also be configured to determine, based at least in part on the vibration associated with the drilling machine and the movement associated with the drilling machine, the drilling machine has drilled holes into the substrate and a position on the substrate at which the drilling machine has drilled the holes into the substrate.
