A SMARTER LOOK AT YOUR MINING FOOTPRINT

AS AERIAL INTELLIGENCE RESHAPES ENVIRONMENTAL AND HERITAGE MONITORING IN MINING, OUTLINE GLOBAL IS PROVIDING HIGH-RESOLUTION IMAGING, AI ANALYSIS AND CUTTING-EDGE TECHNOLOGIES FOR END-TO-END LIFECYCLE SUPPORT.

- 

Aerial intelligence is rapidly redefining how mining companies monitor, manage and restore their sites across the full project lifecycle.

From exploration and approvals to mine closure and rehabilitation, Melbourne-based Outline Global is helping miners access the data they need, and to bridge the critical resolution gap between drones and satellites.

Outline operates a national fleet of aircraft and camera systems, collecting high-resolution geospatial imagery and LiDAR (light detection and ranging) data from remote mining locations that are otherwise difficult to reach.

Unlike satellite imagery, which lacks the necessary granularity for detailed analysis, Outline’s technology delivers precise visual insights that allow miners to monitor environmental changes, assess infrastructure integrity, and streamline compliance reporting.

High-frequency imaging allows operators to compare site evolution over time, often on a monthly or quarterly basis. It also helps them identify features of significance ahead of time.

The platform uses embedded machine learning capabilities for change detection that speeds up regulatory reporting and supports safety and environmental, social and governance (ESG) efforts.

By acting as an independent, third-party verifier of site conditions, Outline gives miners confidence in their reporting and operational decisions.
