OPMMS - Open Pit Mine Monitoring System
Automatic Long Range Monitoring System
OPMMS is a laser-measurement-based monitoring system for automatic and manual long-range profiling of open pits’ slopes and surfaces and other mining applications.

Description
A laser-measurement-based monitoring system for long-range profiling of
• open pit mines (blasting, rock movements, worker security);
• natural hazard areas (rock falls, landslides, debris flow, glaciers);
• construction sites (infrastructure deformations, working areas, worker safety).
OPMMS automatically performs continuous remote scanning from designated permanent sites, comparing the obtained scans to a reference one and identifying displacements and changes.
Within the inspected region, manual on-the-fly analysis and output (statistics, inspection maps, classification charts, displacement and displacement rate graphs across time intervals) are possible. Alerts and customisable notifications are sent via email and SMS.
OPMMS is a complete solution that consists of a Teledyne long-range terrestrial laser scanner that is entirely controlled by processing software built into a dedicated control unit.
OPMMS gives you the possibility to create a permanent setup with multiple ROI at different resolutions.
OPMMS allows you to decide the Start/End time and the acquisition frequency or choose a specific range of dates you want to inspect.
OPMMS stores 3D data for investigations such as volumetric computations landslides or slopes movements; analysis and planning of excavation processes.
BENEFITS
Keep under control movements of surfaces. Customize monitoring frequency and notification thresholds. When the preset threshold is overtaken, the system automatically alerts the supervisor.
Check mine productivity. Compare change detection and displacement measurements with respect to a reference scan. Compute volumetric variations with post-processing analysis.
Manage risk and safeguard workers, underlining potential dangerous areas. Risky areas will be reported to the supervisors who can plan further onsite analysis with geotechnical teams, engineers and topographic surveyors.
