The global mining industry is a major global employer, and its value is expected to grow to $2,427.85 billion by 2025. 2021 figures show a market value of £1,845.55 billion. Investment in exploration, resource exploitation, and mining infrastructure is expected to grow. There are several challenges facing the mining industry today.
The UN defines remote sensing as the emission of electromagnetic signals at certain wavelengths of observed objects or near-earth objects (i.e. from ultraviolet ray to microwave wavelengths). Consequently, remote sensing in the mining industry can be used to gather valuable data which can be analyzed to provide insights throughout the ...
Remote sensing data plays a major role for mapping earth surface features (Mohammed-Aslam et. al, 2006; Reis, 2008; Mohammed-Aslam et. al, 2010). It is used as a powerful tool to monitor the Earth's surface, particularly in producing land use and land cover (LULC) classifications (Christoph et al., 2016). Remotely sensed data are useful for the ...
GIS, which is known as Geographic Information System, is a system that captures, stores, organizes, processes, and maps all kinds of data (Plessis et al, 2022). As shown in Figure 1, GIS connects data to a …
