The Hyperspectral Advantage over Multispectral Imaging
Traditional approaches for assessing the feasibility of mining sites, ensuring minimal environmental impact, and identifying threats such as chemical seepages are labour-intensive, time-consuming, and lack accuracy. Furthermore, the mining sector faces challenges surrounding a growing global population, declining mineral reserves, and strict environmental compliance requirements.
Pinpoint threats to mining and develop precision-optimised solutions
Pixxel’s hyperspectral satellites capture information in up to 250 spectral bands of the electromagnetic spectrum at unprecedented spectral fidelity and high spatial resolutions. This provides diverse solutions across all operational phases in the mining industry.
Capturing hyperspectral imagery over potential mining sites enables decision-makers to identify mineral reserves and assess their feasibility. This also provides continued tracking at scale for any threats to the site and the surrounding natural environment.
Data-driven and sustainable mining practices
Pixxel’s hyperspectral imaging technology, with its frequency and spectral fidelity, facilitates the accurate detection of threats to mines.
Accurate habitat maps surrounding mining sites can help reduce costs, allocate resources efficiently, and improve the overall environmental compliance process while helping regenerate different ecosystems.
Pixxel’s hyperspectral solutions to detect vegetation variations
Explore the capabilities of hyperspectral imaging in habitat mapping and vegetative studies as a valuable tool for sustainable mining practices and leakage detection. This enables focused approaches to enhance the implementation of environmentally compliant and conscious mining practices for:
Mine closure and site remediation
Watersheds surrounding mining sites face ongoing risks of pollution and contamination, particularly in the context of abandoned mine lands and the management of tailing dams. Despite regulatory efforts, these challenges persist, posing threats to surrounding ecosystems and public health. Hyperspectral imaging emerges as a transformative tool in the realm of watershed management, offering unprecedented insights and capabilities.
