Geospatial Surveying and
Mapping
Geospatial Surveying and
Mapping
• How to provide accurate mapping in non-GPS
environments?
• Requirements:
• Rapid collection of multiple data sources including laser
distance measurements;
• Underground and/or non-GPS accuracy of 2cm;
• High density of points 230 gathered per second;
• Other uses
• Machine and End Effector Control
• Data Collection, Trucks, Cutting machines and many
more.

Thank You
Explosives Dismantling Project
- Premature detonation of one blasthole with 300 kg of explosives created a severe
safety issue requiring personnel to maintain a 600 metres safe zone
- Up to 575 loaded holes needed to be unloaded
- Total explosives approximately 200,000 kg of loaded explosives with primers
and detonators
