Mine productivity analysis

Leverage Alteia's AI techniques to deploy more thoughtful road maintenance strategies that allow you to improve machine efficiency, productivity, and safety.

With the Alteia Haul Road and Safety Analysis application, you can store and analyze your mine data, coming from aerial drones, ground cameras, smartphones, or laser scanners.

The application enables the visualization and the computation of images, orthophotos, and 3D data, the processing of AI driven applications in order to increase the performance and safety on haul roads, while reducing associated costs and CO2 emissions.

Alteia’s innovative AI techniques allow you to improve haul road analysis by constantly checking conditions at a quarry or a mine site. This level of insight will enable you to take actions that enhance your employees’ safety and increase efficiency and productivity, while reducing your CO2 emissions and meeting your environmental goals.

Alteia’s application uses geospatial data contained in surveys to extract the geometry of haul roads, road boundaries, crests, and other properties. Display and interact with these locations on an intuitive user interface in a no-code environment to collaborate and measure as needed.

High-value Workflows

Powerful 2D/3D Visualization

Visually assess how your site is doing today or over its lifetime in the timeline. Upload design surfaces or linework to see how you’re faring against the final grade with easy-to-understand single-point, cross-section, and surface-to-surface comparisons. View your entire site with a 2D/3D model so realistic you can use it for virtual walkthroughs.

Accelerate and automate data processing

Simply drag and drop your drone flight data into Alteia, and it will process automatically your images (RGB, thermal, multispectral, hyperspectral) into a 2D and 3D map of your worksite within hours. Alteia Worksite Management leverages cloud computing and the best photogrammetry engines on the market depending on the desired outputs: Pix4d, Bentley Context Capture, or Agisfot Metashape. The application also includes an intuitive interface for manual or AI-assisted Ground Control Point tagging.

Assess how your mine changes over time

Leverage contextualization tools, time series analytics and 2D/3D compare tools to view how elevation profiles, surfaces, or volumes evolve over time. Create reports and share with your teams.

Haul Road Management

This analytic enables the automated analysis of haul roads condition at a quarry or a mine site, in order to take action for road maintenance to improve machine efficiency, productivity and safety. The analytic extracts the geometry of haul roads using the geospatial information contained in the surveys. Then road boundaries, crests, cross falls, cross falls breakpoints and other properties of interest can be displayed and analyzed using the intuitive user interface. Changes in length, slope, elevation, and breakpoints can be measured as well.

Safety and High Walls

This analytic allows to automatically calculate and visualize quarry or mine site features that are impacting the safety of operations : highwalls, safety blocks and berms condition.

Benefits

Share data across your organization

Give everyone on your team instant visibility into the status of the sites. Alteia Haul Road & Safety Analysis centralizes your haul roads documentation and parameters to boost collaboration and give mine operators ways to compare the productivity on different sites under different conditions, and fosters collaborative improvement.

Meet your sustainability goals

Reduce the fuel consumption of your haul trucks, and as such reduce your carbon footprint by 15 to 20%.

Decrease operating costs

By leveraging Alteia Haul Road and Safety Analysis application, you’re accessing simulation tools that help understand how you can increase the productivity of your mine while managing your fleet of trucks better, decrease your fuel consumption and work on tire maintenance costs.
