Mining monitoring package launched by IDS GeoRadar & Worldsensing 27 March 2020

Worldsensing and IDS GeoRadar, a Hexagon company, have cooperated to launch a mine safety monitoring system.

They say that the integrated system will be the ‘first in the world’ to offer surface, sub-surface and geospatial monitoring in a single package, simplifying contracting and deployment.

The system will exploit the capabilities of Worldsensing’s Loadsensing IoT-based wireless monitoring system and look to reduce cost and delay associated with traditional wired or manually read sensor networks.

The joint solution will aim to simplify data management using HxGN GeoMonitoring Hub integrated visualisation and analysis platform, delivered through IDS GeoRadar. According to the two companies, through the integration of Worldsensing and IDS GeoRadar technologies, mining companies will have for the first time a single interface to a monitoring system, which now includes a range of wirelessly connected geotechnical and environmental sensors, in addition to radar, total stations, GNSS and satellite InSAR.

Bernat Trias, director of products at Worldsensing, says: “As leaders in the IoT remote monitoring space, Worldsensing invests in making Loadsensing technology compatible not only with various sensors but also with third-party software, such as HxGN GeoMonitoring Hub by IDS GeoRadar.”

Alberto Bicci, IDS GeoRadar president, adds: “IDS GeoRadar is committed to helping customers put their data to work and we are delighted to present this software knowing that it will positively influence the mining world for years to come."
