Mining
Quality of Life
By bringing speed connectivity to mining communities, the industry can offer people working away for lengthy periods greater access to work and social communications to lift morale and improve welfare.
Operations
LEO networks open the way for a wider variety of applications such as autonomous operations, drone surveillance, and data analytics that save costs and mitigate risks.
Asset Management
New sensor data and network capabilities across multiple sites will support continuous monitoring of fixed and mobile equipment for maintenance, safety, location, and utilization.
Mining in a Connected World
Connectivity Challenges
Mining operations are increasingly digital and generate high volumes of data during day-to-day operations. The challenge is that mine operations are often located in remote locations, with poor access to terrestrial networks.
Connectivity solutions
LEO satellites can solve these issues with flexible, scalable, and cost-effective bandwidth options. Even remote mining operations can have greater access to key corporate applications, whilst workers will enjoy a more connected lifestyle in their leisure time, including video conferencing and cloud collaboration systems.
