Mining

Incorporating GPS/GNSS and inertial sensors into the equipment being used in open pit mines


Today, mining companies are exploring ways to mine more safely and sustainably, leveraging new technologies to maximize their production. Because most mines are located in either remote wilderness or deep underground, the solution must be equally rugged and reliable as it is accurate. Not only does Trimble’s mining technology drastically lower costs and improve operations in some of the most demanding conditions, it offers a viable solution for longstanding industry challenges, such as labor shortages.
