Tailings Storage Facilities (TSFs) are the backbone of responsible mining operations, holding the processed by-products of extraction.

For those already familiar with InSAR’s core capabilities, the true value now lies in how this data is used to refine risk management and decision-making at a high-performance level.

The Kansanshi Mine in Zambia is Africa's largest open-pit gold and copper mine. With pits extending up to 3 km and situated in a geologically complex environment of dolomite, marble, and schistose rock, slope stability is crucial for the mine's safe and efficient operation.

The Municipality of Gouda has a problem with soft soil as old as the city itself: the city center is vulnerable to subsidence.

In the mining sector, the safety and stability of infrastructure are paramount. SkyGeo , in collaboration with a company in the Potassium Mining sector, took a significant step toward improving dam safety by implementing the innovative Sinkhole Scanner .

InSAR technology offers millimeter-level accuracy in detecting land deformation, enabling mining companies to identify potential instabilities in tailings dams before they escalate into significant risks.

In September 2020, a security camera captured a 25-metre section of a quay wall along the Grimburgwal in Amsterdam, lean forwards and collapse into the canal.

SkyGeo measures the soil subsidence of every road in the city of Diemen with millimeter precision. Maintenance planners receive subsidence figures for all neighborhoods, based on satellite images since 1992.

Leaning houses, sinking streets, shifting dikes, and drying nature reserves. The new interactive subsidence map 2.

We already suspected that the ground in the Netherlands was subsiding, but it has now been measured for the entire country for the first time.

Kockengen in the Municipality of Stichtse Vecht has a problem with soft soil as old as the village itself: subsiding roads must be maintained periodically to keep them functional.

The Municipality of Amsterdam faces the enormous task of assessing and potentially replacing 200 kilometers of quay walls along the charming old inner canals.

Leaning buildings, subsiding streets and dikes, and even drying nature reserves. Dutch citizens, municipalities, the government, and businesses will have to invest heavily in maintenance in the coming period.

Although we have long suspected that the ground in the Netherlands is subsiding, the first nationwide measurements proving this have now been published.

At the induced seismicity (human-made seismic activity) conference in Dallas a few weeks back, we learned how injecting large amounts of salt disposal water deep in the Permian Basin causes earthquakes over a wide area, many miles away from where the water was injected.

S. energy production, is also home to one of the oil industry’s most pressing operational challenges: managing the risks associated with Saltwater Disposal (SWD).

SkyGeo recently presented at an energy industry conference in Dallas on ‘Induced Seismicity’ (earth movement caused by human activity).
