Overburden & Stripping Surveys
Visually and quantitively verify contractors reports for overburden removal. Once approved the overall quarry surface can be updated reflecting the new changes.
Change Detection Scanning
Create customized data ranges to determine the distance of change and visualize the variance. This can be useful for overburden, reclamation, shotcrete depths, or tracking movement of material.
Overburden / Stripping Example
An overlay of the point clouds captured from a LiDAR UAV / Drone is made into strips and overlaid on the final rendered surface. Being able to determine ground surface from the tops of trees and vegetation is critical for volume calculations.
UAV / Drone Specific Work (LiDAR & Photogrammetry)
Ensuring large projects such as stripping/overburden projects are captured accurately is extremely important. With access to LiDAR & photogrammetry platforms and post processing abilities for both Wingfield can custom tailor the data capture.
Quarry & Open Pit Mapping
LiDAR and/or photogrammetry point clouds of open pit mines is used to generate a surface, contours, quarry updates, and as built vs. design comparisons.
