Mining companies are always looking for new ways to identify geologic features in their area so they can extract minerals and metals more efficiently. In a recent study, researchers used aerial lidar data to map the surface features of an mining area. The results of this study could help mining companies save time and money by helping them better plan their operations.
Aerial Lidar is a remote sensing technology that uses laser pulses to map the surface of the earth. In this study, researchers used lidar data from an aircraft to map the surface features of an mining area The results showed that the lidar data could be used to identify geologic features, such as faults and folds, that are hidden beneath the surface.
Aerial Lidar surveys are becoming more common as they become more affordable and accessible. As more companies adopt this technology, we will likely see even more innovative applications for it in the Mining industry.
