programmes include a variety of other sensors. “We build comprehensive systems that may include wireless geotechnical sensors, digital weather stations, vibration and crack sensors, and SAA/inclinometers, not to mention emerging technologies such as visual monitoring processes and terrestrial laser scanning,” Wilson says. “With so many options, we can always deliver the right solution for the situation.”

Mines off er multitudes of monitoring opportunities
All Trimble products are manufactured with IP ratings that facilitate use in the harsh climates that are the norm at Australian mines. T is includes ambient temperatures of up to 50°,C which can often be higher in a monitoring shelter or mining pit. In addition, some of the equipment and related accessories need to be able to withstand extreme weather events such as cyclones, which are common across many mines. In particular, the S and SX series total stations are extremely robust and there are instruments still in use after
more than 10 years of service, running continuously under harsh conditions. Most mine monitoring systems benefi t
from combining diff erent sensor types to build a multidisciplinary approach. Complementary data improves the likelihood of identifying problems with early warning to avoid damage and injury. Legislative mandates and individual company goals for worker and public safety infl uence the distribution and type of sensors selected from the myriad options available today.
