    GroundProbe is a global technology leader providing advanced hardware and software solutions to the mining industry. Its specialised suite of products and services allow mine personnel to make confident decisions in open-pit operations to maximise safety and productivity, holding true to its vision of making mining safer.Australian-based company GroundProbe is a truly multinational business, which evolved from an industry-funded PhD project at the University of Queensland in the 1990s into the leading global supplier of slope stability monitoring solutions. The original research was funded by the Australian Coal Association Research Program and was focused on developing solutions to detect slope failures that did not require physical access to slope walls, and provided real time monitoring in a broad range of conditions. GroundProbe has continued to heavily invest in research and development to deliver market-leading innovative solutions to ensure it has both a strong technical focus and a customer solutions-centred culture.GroundProbe has focused on improving mine site productivity and safety by increasing decision confidence related to when and where a slope failure will occur. Unforeseen slope failures have the potential to lead to loss of life and equipment which in turn leads to mine sites developing more conservative mine designs (less steep mine walls) and the avoidance of mining particular areas of a pit – both of which incur a significant cost. The improved decision confidence that GroundProbe creates leads to improvements in mine site productivity and safety along each of these dimensions.Source: this is an extract from the company’s own website
