The use of geospatial is gathering momentum in the coal mining and exploration industry owing to its tremendous applications in mining/exploring sites and its capability to integrate communications across departments. The technology is constantly evolving to meet the changing needs of the mining industry, both in Exploration and mining terms. In today’s complex and competitive environment, geospatial offers multiple applications in the mining industry with tools to gather, compile, process, display, analyse, and archive extensive volumes of data. A well designed, implemented, and supported GIS management structure is critical in the success of your mining operation.

In order to bring out the vital significance of geospatial technologies in mining industry, a seminar on “Geospatial benefitting mining domain” shall cover strategies for the effective use of geospatial technologies for the improved efficiency and efficacy in the domain. Case studies by technical experts and users from across the globe will give a clear picture on the current successful applications of the technology and its prospective role in the domain of mining.

Objectives:
  • Bring forth the use of varied geospatial technologies for mining domain
  • Geospatial for mines site safety and hazard Management
  • Use of geospatial technologies in mining surveys
  • Effective manage the fleet by use of technology
  • Role of private industry in providing solution and services to the mining and exploration agencies
