Build a verifiable field system for production evidence, safety inspection, and corrective-action closure: numbers are explainable and risks are manageable.

Applicable roles: Survey & operations / Safety inspector / Crew lead / Production manager / Compliance & audit

Pain point 1 (More stable) | Large sites and harsh conditions: key measurements can't be delayed

Open pits and stockyards are wide and dynamic. Teams need reliable positioning and repeatable control even when connectivity is poor.

Workflow 1 | Reliable control and key-point measurement organization (Measure)

What: Boundary confirmation, key points, periodic checks

How: Use RTK with radio corrections (5W up to 30 km, or 2W for smaller areas) and on-unit screens for rapid start and status checks; build stable control and repeatable re-check routines.

Deliverables: Boundary/key-point records / periodic summaries (exportable, repeatable)

Suggested image: Boundary line + key-point overlay

Recommended kit 1 | Continuity measurement kit

RTK base (5W/2W radio as needed) + RTK rover (on-unit screen) + management software (archive/export)


Pain point 2 (More efficient) | Production quantities are disputed: slow calculations and inconsistent criteria

Without a consistent method and traceable data, volume/progress claims become arguments that slow decisions and settlement.

Workflow 2 | Traceable volume/progress records (Measure + Manage)

What: Stockpile volume checks, stage progress records, consistent reporting

How: RTK captures the key geometry; management software enforces consistent reporting periods and archiving; portable Windows devices support field-side consolidation and report output. Image-based measurement can be used as auxiliary evidence where access is unsafe or restricted.

Deliverables: Volume/progress results / stage reports (traceable, exportable)

Recommended kit 2 | Production evidence efficiency kit

RTK (key geometry capture) + management software (archive/export/reporting) + portable Windows tablet/laptop (field consolidation/output)Suggested image: Field report output scene


Pain point 3 (More controllable) | Corrective actions don't close: evidence isn't complete or traceable

If hazards are recorded without clear location, severity, and before/after evidence, closure is hard to verify and audits become painful.

Workflow 3 | Safety inspection records + corrective-action closure (Inspect + Manage)

What: Record hazards, dispatch fixes, verify closure with evidence

How: GIS handhelds capture hazards as structured records with location and evidence (works offline with independent GNSS); management software drives work orders and reporting; portable Windows devices support on-site audit pack output; RTK supports re-checks and, where helpful, laser/visual staking for precise placement in restricted zones.

Deliverables: Closure report (before/after evidence) / work-order stats / audit package

Recommended kit 3 | Closure & audit kit

GIS handheld (hazard evidence) + management software (work orders + reports) + portable Windows tablet/laptop (field output) + RTK (re-checks when required)
