The Challenge

What the Industry Struggles With

High-risk environments demand better data capture methods.

Site Access & Safety Risk

Sending crews into active mining pits, elevated structures, or live corridors creates WHS exposure that slows projects and increases liability.

Data Currency

Surveys taken monthly — or quarterly — become stale within days. Decisions made on outdated data compound into costly errors downstream.

Volume Accuracy

Traditional ground-based stockpile measurements introduce significant human error, leading to inaccurate inventory reporting and reconciliation failures.

AECT Solution

How AECT Addresses It

Continuous, safety-first aerial data capture that replaces boots-on-ground risk.

Aerial LiDAR Regular Capture

Establish a repeatable drone capture cadence across your site. Weekly or fortnightly flights create a living dataset that keeps pace with operations.

Volumetric Stockpile Analysis

Generate survey-grade volume calculations from aerial LiDAR in hours, not days. Compare cut/fill against design with centimetre-level confidence.

Corridor Mapping

Capture kilometres of road, rail, or pipeline corridor in a single mission. Deliver DTM, cross-sections, and clearance analysis from one flight.

Safety-First Documentation

Remove personnel from hazardous zones entirely. Drones and LiDAR capture the data — your team stays on safe ground with ISO-certified evidence packs.
