    Autonomous LiDAR UAV/Drone
    Autonomous Drone LiDAR UAV Underground
    Using our Autonomous UAV/Drone to examine abandoned mine travel-ways allowed our client to understand and mitigate hazard before exposing men and machines. The video-LiDAR displayed critical, otherwise inaccessible data available to decision makers.

    Room and Pillar Scanning
    LiDAR Room and Pillar Underground
    Using static and dynamic LiDAR systems we are able to map, measure, and track room and pillar progress. LiDAR and processing data allows for enhanced visualization of areas of interest and more precise volumetrics.
  • Mine Shaft Scanning
    07/07/2022
    Mine Shaft Scanning
    LiDAR Mineshaft Underground
    Shaft scanning has been used for rehab, repairs, change detection, and historical mapping. The ability to mount our dynamic LiDAR system to a cage and map shafts effectively, safely, and quickly means lower amounts of downtime in hoist operations.
  • Underground Structure Scanning

    Underground Structure Scanning
    LiDAR Structural Scanning Underground
    With the ability to scan and map with high resolution gives Wingfield expertise in structure scanning not only on the surface but underground. Making upgrades to structures or creating blueprints that can be accessed anywhere saves time and money.
  • Autonomous UAV LiDAR Scanning
    07/07/2022
    Autonomous UAV LiDAR Scanning
    Autonomous Drone LiDAR UAV Underground
    This UAV can be manually or autonomously flown to map areas that are inaccessible or lack the structural integrity for safe entry. It is commonly used for stopes and voids, failing and older or abandoned working areas, and for basic inspection.

    Underground Room and Pillar Example
    LiDAR Room and Pillar Underground
    A sample of a room and pillar point cloud and rendered surface used for volumetric calculation, as-built vs design, convergence, mine design updates, and more!

    Underground Maintenance Shop Example
    LiDAR Structural Scanning Underground
    A processed and scanned underground maintenance shop that was being measured for dimensions and clearance checks for new and existing equipment.

    Shaft Scanning with Timber Sets
    LiDAR Mineshaft Underground
    Point cloud data captured in one hour on a two-compartment 2,000ft timber lined shaft. Data is used for rehabbing, documentation, change detection, and scoping purposes for other contractors.
  • 07/07/2022
    Large Pillars and Change Detection
    Change Detection LiDAR Room and Pillar Underground
    Large underground mines with high roofs or backs can be challenging to check for changes or movement. The LiDAR systems used by Wingfield can scan to a range of 600 meters underground and provide real data that can be compared overtime to track movement.
  • Headframe Structural Example
    07/07/2022
    Headframe Structural Example
    LiDAR Mineshaft Structural Scanning
    If a structure is being rehabbed or being upgraded and there is limited access on a daily basis. Scanning the structure can be valuable for contractors to check measurements without going to site or stopping production.
  • Underground Crane Example

    Underground Crane Example
    LiDAR Structural Scanning Underground
    Planning upgrades for underground but need to be sending information to contractors on placement of equipment or measurements? Digital twins allow you take measurements in software and avoid the cage ride to check on a measurement.
  • Point Cloud Data of Collapsed Inaccessible Tunnel
    07/07/2022
    Point Cloud Data of Collapsed Inaccessible Tunnel
    Autonomous Drone LiDAR UAV
    This point cloud data was captured using Autonomous UAV LiDAR to be used for rehabilitation project analysis in a partially collapsed rail tunnel.
