Synopsis

Monitoring of the mining works performance and their success as well as the assessment of possible risks is one of the daily requirements in mining. One of the most important segments of mineral exploitation is the condition of the mine works after blasting since people's safety can be compromised after blasting. Very often, due to the terrain morphology and limited or even disabled access to the benches, it is not possible to capture all points and collect data using classical surveying methods. In order to reduce the risk of any threat, it is necessary to monitor the mining works and evaluate the success of their performance in a safe manner, and this is possible using unmanned aerial vehicles e.g. drones.
