READ MOREGMS: Prism and Prismless Monitoring
TOTAL MONITORING FLEXIBILITY The GMS provides total monitoring flexibility. It allows users to not only monitor prisms, but also add new virtual points on the wall. Reflecting the laser signal directly off the rock, the GMS achieves precision users can act on.
READ MOREGMS: Dual Cameras and Three Levels of Zoom
SET-AND-FORGET The GMS is set-and-forget, requiring no hardware interaction after deployment and minimal maintenance over time. Users can control the unit from the software, allowing visual inspections to be carried out entirely remotely.
READ MOREGMS: SSR-Viewer Integration
RAPID, PRECISE ANALYSIS The GMS is fully integrated with SSR-Viewer, GroundProbe’s patented, market-leading software. It offers the rapid, precise analysis of data to detect trends, and the ability to send alerts for immediate action. Its powerful data visualisation, charting and analysis tools take the GMS well beyond the capabilities of typical robotic total stations.

READ MOREGML Monitors Rear Wall of Shaft to Determine Optimal Targeted Ground Support
TARGETED GROUND SUPPORT OVERVIEW Underground environments are dynamic by nature, with the effectiveness of ground support consistently changing. Through monitoring, areas of high risk can be identified and rehabilitated in a targeted way. At a large, well-known hard rock mine in Queensland, Australia, visual inspections on the rear wall of a shaft showed cracking in the shotcrete. […]
