Leading provider of tailored geospatial solutions

Geoimage has been a trusted provider of value-added products and services to the global mining and exploration sector for over three decades. Regardless of whether the requirements involve exploration, operations, safety, environmental monitoring, or compliance, Geoimage excels in crafting customised geospatial solutions to precisely meet each client's specific needs.

Monitoring ground disturbance with satellite imagery

Geoimage offers high-resolution satellite imagery and solutions to track ground disturbance, aiding mining progress, construction adherence to regulations, and sustainable land use. Detailed maps and models are created using satellite data, including Digital Elevation Models for terrain information.

By analysing imagery from different times, change detection techniques measure the rate and scale of ground disruption, helping companies monitor and manage land use more effectively.

Ensuring safety with satellite monitoring

Geoimage ensures tailing dam stability and community safety by offering high-resolution satellite imagery and solutions to track structural changes like subsidence, cracks, and deformations.

Spectral analysis detects shifts in vegetation, water flow, and land use near the dam, unveiling potential hazards like flooding and erosion. The monitoring solution employs change detection algorithms displaying changes over time within your GIS, aiding in the early identification of risks.

Assessing rehabilitation progress with high-resolution satellite imagery

Evaluate the progress and effectiveness of rehabilitation efforts using accurate and detailed information.

Geoimage can provide high-resolution satellite imagery to assess the vegetation cover and ground conditions of rehabilitated areas. This information can be used to determine the success of rehabilitation efforts and identify areas that may require further attention.

Geoimage can perform spectral analysis on satellite imagery to provide information on soil quality, moisture content, and other important factors that influence the success of rehabilitation efforts.

Let Geoimage map the distribution of native and invasive species to ensure you remain compliant with environmental commitments.

CASE STUDY

Use of AW3D within Mineral Exploration

Geoimage utilised the ALOS World 3D Digital Elevation Model (AW3D) to help First Quantum Minerals overcome obstacles in challenging terrain. This innovative solution improved exploration efficiency, saved time and costs, and highlighted the benefits of remote mining operations.
