LiDAR-Based Topographic Detection for Mining Area Exploration

Introduction Mining exploration is a crucial initial stage in determining the presence and potential of mineral resources in a given area. The success of exploration is heavily influenced by the quality of the data used, particularly topographic data. Accurate topographic information is necessary to understand surface conditions, such as landforms, slope gradients, and geological structures […]

PowerGIS Aerial Inspection and Intelligent Geospatial Analysis for Power Transmission Networks

Introduction Reliable power transmission systems require regular inspection to prevent outages and maintain operational safety. Conventional inspection methods rely on manual field checks or climbing inspections, which are time-consuming and pose safety risks to personnel. The integration of unmanned aerial vehicles (UAVs), Light Detection and Ranging (LiDAR), artificial intelligence (AI), and Geographic Information Systems (GIS) […]
