GroundProbe White Paper

Company Name: GroundProbe
Address: www.groundprobe.com

Business Description:
GroundProbe is a global technology leader providing advanced hardware and software solutions to the mining industry. Its specialised suite of products and services allow mine personnel to make confident decisions in open-pit operations to maximise safety and productivity, holding true to its vision of making mining safer.

White Paper: NotePage's PageGate software can be combined with GroundProbe's innovative SSR-Viewer 8.1 as a powerful means to address the danger of fatalities on mine sites. GroundProbe offers comprehensive and reliable slope stability monitoring and data interpretation to detect and predict unsafe mine site conditions, and does so with greater speed than any competing softwares. Using the versatile and effective mass messaging powers of PageGate, GroundProbe offers a robust means of distributing vital and accurate information about mine site safety that could save lives.

Mines across America have long attracted attention and notoriety for poor safety conditions and, consequently, high rates of injury and death. Though the numbers have improved in the past few decades, before which more than 200 fatalities could be expected each year, the immediate safety and long-term health of miners remains an active concern. In 2014, 45 mining fatalities were still documented.

To ensure mine site safety, safety systems must operate as effectively and rapidly as possible. Technology used to detect and report unsafe conditions must not only be sensitive, but must also have top-notch transmission systems so that important safety information can be relayed as quickly, broadly, and reliably as possible. In short, when slope instability threatens the safety of miners, time is of the essence.

SSR-Viewer 8.1's adept slope stability monitoring, coupled with the speed and efficacy PageGate offers in mass message transmission, fits the bill. GroundProbe SSR Viewer Alarms use highly sensitive technology that detects sub-millimeter movement anywhere on a wall slope, allowing not only for the detection of risky conditions but the prediction of conditions that are likely to present risks in the future. Its scans are also rapid and accurate, using a pixel resolution of over 1.4 million per scan, a maximum diameter of 5.6 km, and updating every two minutes. Notably, with these features, SSR-Viewer 8.1 is faster than all competing technologies.

As important as comprehensive data acquisition and analysis is effective transmission of that information. PageGate offers instant mass text messaging capabilities, with multiple options including group messaging, pre-programmed and scheduled text messages, and on-call texting. Additionally, PageGate employs a tactic of scanning a predetermined file for text messages which is of great use in sending messages from within other programs. PageGate also integrates seamlessly with almost all CAD systems, making it a powerful and readily available tool in conjunction with other technologies.

Combining GroundProbe's SSR-Viewer with PageGate offers exhaustive and precise slope stability-monitoring technology equipped with versatile and reliable mass messaging capabilities, bolstering the efficacy of SSR-Viewer 8.1 by expanding its communicative power. Although mine site safety has been on the climb in recent years, we still need the most current and powerful technology to maintain this progress and further still decrease the rate of mining-related injuries and deaths. Together, GroundProbe's SSR-Viewer and NotePage's PageGate rise to the challenge.
