Mining and resources

Hazard awareness for remote operations

Mines, camps, rail lines and ports sit in some of the most fire- and cyclone-exposed country there is. Bushfire.io keeps every site and route under watch, and puts a current view of the ground in your GIS.

The challenge

What makes it hard

People spread across remote sites

Camps, crews and contractors need to know about fires and storms early, wherever they are.

Rail, roads and ports

Closures and hazards on supply routes ripple through the whole operation.

Ground that keeps changing

Pits, dumps and rehabilitation move faster than most imagery is updated.
