Identifying the Potential Application of Unmanned Aerial Vehicle Technology in Mine Waste Dumps

Keywords: UAV, drone, mine, mine waste dumps

Abstract

In recent years, unmanned aerial vehicles (UAV) have been applied in the mining sector for a variety of purposes. This paper discusses
the use of UAVs in the management of mine waste dumps based on analyzing scientific publications (January 2010 to May 2023). Three
bibliography databases including Scopus, Google Scholar, and Web of Science were used to perform a thorough assessment of the literature.
This study provides a comprehensive overview of UAV applications in mine waste dumps including environmental management, terrain
surveying and 3D modeling, and safety and risk management. The obtained results of the study hope to give a technical reference,
enhancing the understanding of UAV monitoring in mine waste dump.
