MineExcellence Drone Platform

2. Introduction
In Mining industry UAV/Drone survey provide aerial images delivering high accurate
Topography data, 3D Digital Elevation Models and Digital Surface Models (DSM).
MineExcellence Drone Platform provides 2D/3D visualization with various tools
helping in scoping, assessment, planning, surveying, design and inspection.

4. Applications
Drones provide high definition imagery, elevation data and 3D models to enable better
scoping, planning, design and maintenance decisions.
Exploration & Planning
• Feature Extraction & Environmental
Assessment Elevation & Contours
• Digital Terrain Modelling (DTM) for
height and elevation data of the site
• Digital Elevation Modelling (DEM) for
height and depth of the entire site
• Mine Survey
• Design of Roads
Operations & Maintenance
• Mine Growth Mapping
• Stock Pile Calculations
• Pre & Post blast assessment &
calculations
• Development analysis
• Documentations
• Blast video in slow motion resolution

5. Applications
• Volumetric Analysis: Calculation of stockpiles, waste piles, rocks, or any other matter is
easy. Measure volume, areas, distance, etc.
• Slope Analysis: The slopes can be shown as per the angles in specific colors to get a
better understanding for planning of mines.
• Contour Mapping: Contours can be marked throughout the mines at any specific unit.
From 10m to 0.1m to any other unit, contour lines can be generated for a depth analysis.
• Distances: Any specific distance can be calculated whether horizontally or vertically.
• Boundaries: The boundaries can be generated to view the breakpoints more easily to
plan its recovery.
• Blast Design: Designing blast in real time view of the site over a drone file and analyse
its impacts like flyrock, air & ground vibrations etc.
• Front Row Burden Analysis: Try different front row burdens and analyse its impacts on
flyrock and fragmentation etc.

Using traditional ground methods, a 60-acre site could easily take two or even
three weeks to survey.

21. CollaborationviaCloud
Share data to all the stakeholders to increase
collaboration.
Digital drone data, hosted in a secure online cloud environment,
makes collaboration with stakeholders simple. Whether taking
decisions to improve operational planning, depletion accounting,
monitoring environmental factors or identifying and agreeing on
required maintenance work.

22. YourBenefits
Safety
• Personnel safety improvement
• Operational safety enhancement
• Safety enhancement – Reduction of
personnel working at heights
• Risk minimization
Resources
• Optimization of crew deployment –
Shorter notification time for ground crew

inspection time for equipment set-up
• Resource planning optimization – More
efficient allocation of highly skilled labor
Cost
• Replacement of conventional methods –
Low cost UAV surveying Solutions
• Reduction of opportunity cost – Less
operation shutdown
• Reduction of expensive conventional
methods – Less teams & platforms
• Lower opportunity cost – Reduced asset
downtime
Reporting
• Up-to-date reporting to better track
progress– Speed-up decision making
• Digitalized workable data – Stakeholders
interaction through a single platform
• Accurate and precise data sets – Ensuring
100% inspection coverage
• Evidence on every identified irregularities –
Workable digital data

23. AerialSurveyingworkflow
Compared to traditional methods of mapping, Aerial 3D mapping is more convenient,
faster, economical & accurate. Large areas of land can be mapped in matter of few hours
with the data delivered within 24-48 hours
