The 500m range scanner I-Site 8200SR serves as an accurate solution for cavity surveys and can also be used for surface applications such as stockpile, shed and silo scanning.

With a longer range at 750m, the I-Site 8200ER scanner provides better outcomes for mapping underground drives and tunnels as well as surface stockpiles.

Maptek global operations managing director and chief executive Peter Johnson said more mining operations can benefit by making Sentry compatible with the latest I-Site laser scanners.

"Sentry combines laser scan data with sophisticated software to track and analyse surface movement over time. Any movement can potentially lead to failures, so early warning is vital.

I-Site scanners also provide conformance reporting using I-Site Studio, Drive and PerfectDig.
