As leaders in real-time, geotechnical monitoring of slopes and walls in both open-cut and underground mines, we at GroundProbe have been working in the global mining industry for over 17 years. Over time, we have developed an expert understanding of these environments and their infrastructure – like tailings dams – and the unique challenges they […]
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 MORECase Study: Risk Reduction Strategy Incorporates Tailings Dam Monitoring at Samarco Mine
RISK REDUCTION STRATEGY INCORPORATES TAILINGS DAM MONITORING AT SAMARCO MINE Tailings storage facilities or dams can represent a significant environmental and financial liability for mining operations as a breach or failure of a dam can have catastrophic physical, social and economic impacts. Following a tailings dam failure in November 2015, the Samarco Mineração S.A owned […]
READ MOREGroundProbe Provides Safety-Critical Assistance to Samarco Following Recent Events
Within hours of recent events at Samarco, the geotechnical engineers from the mine reached out to GroundProbe requesting monitoring assistance. GroundProbe immediately arranged the deployment of two SSR-XT radars to provide a complete risk reduction strategy for the mine to assess further risks and hazards. The flexible scan angle area of the radars was put […]
