Mapping and measurement technologies for mining applications
As a long-established pioneer in mapping and measurement technology, serving the mining and aggregates, solid waste, and construction industries, Firmatek provides a number of services to our clients.
We have been supplying inventory measurement and management services to the mining industry since 1988. Our experienced team is here to help you solve complex inventory problems.
Firmatek strives to remain at the forefront of innovation and technology to provide accurate and efficient data collection and processing to clients.
We will help you determine whether our mobile or stationary LiDAR, one of the many types of drones we use, or a combination of the tools is suitable for your job. We will also work with you to determine the service model that will work best for your operational needs.
Drone service for map data collection
Firmatek offers two service models: field services and drone solutions.
With our field services, one of our technicians will come out to your site and collect the data at a scheduled time. If you choose our drone solutions, we will equip you with the necessary equipment and training. You will then be free to fly the drone at your convenience. After you have flown over the area that needs to be mapped and measured, you can upload the images to Firmatek’s client portal.
After the data is collected, our team processes it to provide inventory results. You can login to the client portal and view your results, as well as download them as needed.
All deliverables and historical reports from Firmatek can be found and accessed on the client portal.
