    Identify hazards, reduce accidents and incidents

    An inability to adequately identify obstacles and structural hazards prior to and during LHD (also known as scooptram or bogger) operation can lead to accidents and incidents that have a significant production loss, cost and safety impact. Hovermap’s LHD solution makes underground mine production faster and safer by bringing near real time visibility to LHD operations.

    Connecting easily and securely to the LHD, Hovermap enables an operator to remotely conduct a 360-degree scan of the working face and visualize results in minutes for analysis, allowing them to safely identify obstacles and complex structural issues before they become a problem.

     

    “No drone. No CMS. Plug in, start, stop and you have survey-grade scans. Anyone can do it.”

    — Tim Campbell, Area Manager Operations, Mining Plus

    Benefit from:

    • Near real-time 360° visualization

      Fast, safe 360-degree visualization of a stope without the blind spots, no light required.

    • Safer operations

      Safer operations with the ability to conduct a Hovermap scan and view outputs remotely.

    • 3D visualization

      Three-dimensional visualization to identify loose rocks, structural hazards, and rill angles.

    • Faster time to insight

      Faster time to insight without the need for a drone or surveyor – the simple design means a user can create accurate stope scans in minutes, with minimal training.​

    • Reduced downtime

      Reduced operational downtime, maximizing production.

    • Increased savings

      Savings on LHD vehicle repairs and reduction in replacement costs.
