ABOUT OUR GEOSPATIAL SOLUTIONS FOR MINING
Mineral extraction operations involve unique logistical challenges. AeroMetric provides mine owners and operators with geospatial services throughout the life cycle of a mine—during exploration and feasibility studies, ore extraction, mine closure, and landscape restoration. The deliverables we provide include digital aerial imagery, LiDAR, digital elevation models, planimetric and topographic maps, orthophotography, enterprise GIS, and remote sensing. AeroMetric’s variety of services and deliverables provides each client with the assurance that when a particular environmental, operational or regulatory need arises, we can produce the right solution to solve that need. Many clients value our life cycle services. This provides them with an archive of reliable temporal mine records that they are able to utilize when regulatory, legal, or technical challenges arise. As a trusted mapping partner, AeroMetric’s recurring mapping and monitoring solutions helps mine operators more efficiently manage mine operations and resources. Flexibility is key. Our goal is to always deliver practical and useful information—adjusting our solutions to meet each client’s schedule, requirements and outcomes.

Exploration and Feasibility
Mining Operations Monitor the status of your reserves using our aerial imagery, LiDAR, planimetric and topographic maps, orthophotography and enterprise GIS services. These solutions help monitor pit excavation change, and volumes of both stockpiles and tailings. AeroMetric’s operations mapping solutions help you manage and operate a safe and efficient mine site. Mine Development Once a site has been selected we offer a variety of solutions that assist with conceptual engineering and detailed engineering design. Our deliverables support mine infrastructure development, open pit design, slope stability analyses, and operations permitting. AeroMetric’s development mapping solutions support your activities to bring your mine into production. Exploration and Feasibility Our exploration and feasibility solutions encompass the delivery of imagery, maps and GIS data. Our deliverables support mineral exploration and pre-feasibility studies, geomorphology evaluation, yield estimates, wetland and land ownership identification, as well as potential environmental impacts and permitting requirements. AeroMetric’s exploration and feasibility mapping solutions will carry over to provide dividends throughout the lifespan of your mine. Mine Closure and Rehabilitation Monitoring As your mine approaches the end of its economic lifespan, our services support the effort required to meet regulatory agency requirements. Our remote sensing, image classification, change detection techniques, enterprise GIS services and mapping will assist you with the mine closure process. And these services carry over to land rehabilitation. AeroMetric’s closure and site reclamation solutions help you decommission the mine and transform the land to new uses.
