Earth intelligence for mines

See what is changing.
Know what to do next.

TerraOps uses satellite images and AI to help mines monitor large areas, spot problems earlier, plan better infrastructure and verify completed work.

See TerraOps in action

See the change. Understand what to do.

Satellite images are useful. Knowing what changed is better. Knowing what to do next is where TerraOps becomes valuable.

Drag the handle to compare the two dates.

TerraOps found

4.7 hectares of new ground disturbance

0.8 hectares may be outside the planned working area.

Why this matters

This may need an operational or environmental check.

How TerraOps works

From a picture to a clear next step.

Satellite images help TerraOps watch large areas without sending people everywhere.

What can TerraOps help with?

One platform. Different problems.

TerraOps helps mines understand what is physically happening across large operations.

The practical difference

Why would a mine need TerraOps?

Travel less

Large mine with inspection points

Send people to check everything

What could this look like in the real world?

These fictional examples show how TerraOps could be used by mining and engineering teams.

Mhlabeni Coal Mine

Finding changes across a large operation

Problem: Managers cannot physically inspect every part of the mine every day.

TerraOps: Satellite monitoring identifies new land disturbance, water changes and rehabilitation areas needing attention.

Finding a better way to move coal

Problem: Coal travels a long distance between the mining area and wash plant using trucks.

TerraOps: MineFlow compares three possible conveyor corridors and shows what each route may interfere with.

Example result

Route B is recommended for further study

Your TerraOps assistant

There are 3 things worth checking today.

  • New land disturbance near Mining Area A.
  • Rehabilitation Area R12 is recovering slowly.
  • Surface water increased in the North Water Area.

What you can do next

Start with Mining Area A because part of the change may be outside the planned working area.

Imbokodo Rehabilitation Project

Checking whether visible work matches the report

Problem: The work was reported as 100% complete, but not everything is visible from above.

TerraOps: TerraOps brings satellite observations and field evidence together before management closes the work.

Example result

Observable progress: about 92% · Field inspection: needs attention

Built for real operational questions

Start with the question, not the software.

What changed since last month?

Where should someone inspect?

Which route is worth studying?
