Tailings Insight – evolving to deliver on our commitment
We know that monitoring TSFs tailings storage facilities (TSFs) isn’t always about adopting a one-size-fits-all approach. You may already have the sensors and connectivity in place, but nowhere to view the collected data. Likewise, you may not have any infrastructure in place at your TSFs at all.
Whether you have the infrastructure already, or you require everything from sensors to connectivity, we’ve got the solutions for you. Delivering on our commitment to support safer, more transparent management of TSFs globally, we have evolved our tailings dam monitoring solution into Tailings Insight. This satellite-enabled service is split into two tiers: Tailings Insight – Cloud and Tailings Insight – Plus, giving you access to different levels of support.
Being responsible for tailings dams is a tough job. Even today, operational challenges – such as far-flung locations, multiple TSFs across the globe and regulatory considerations – make dams notoriously difficult to monitor. This needn’t be a problem anymore. With the development of our Tailings Insight solutions, Inmarsat is redefining the mining of tomorrow. Safeguarding the lives of thousands, protecting fragile ecosystems and meeting regulatory compliance has never been so straightforward.
If you want to stand out as a leader in TSF management or are hampered by a lack of reliable connectivity, our Tailings Insight – Plus solution is for you. With our award-winning cloud application at its heart, this software is the gold standard in TSF management.
Inmarsat provides the connectivity, integration and ongoing local support, wherever you are located. In providing you with deep, real-time insight into the status of your tailings facilities and the conditions that affect them, our solution makes certain that those who are serious about effectively managing their TSFs have the tools they need to excel. Whether you want to lead on Environmental and Social Governance (ESG) or keep tabs on particularly inaccessible and unconnected dam sites, this solution has you covered.
The solution combines Inmarsat’s Tailings Insight – Cloud application, global L-band satellite connectivity, LoRaWAN (Long Range Wide Area Network) edge connectivity, sensor integration, installation, training and ongoing support. Data is transferred from sensors via LoRaWAN, across our ultra-reliable L-band satellite network and into the application. This offers you the granular insight you need, as well as auditing, alarm and note-based functionality. We also provide a service level agreement (SLA), so you can be confident all the necessary data is available wherever and whenever you need it.
Our Tailings Insight – Cloud solution is a software-as-a-service application that gives you the tools to view all your tailings data in one place via a single dashboard. By compiling data from multiple sources in one place, we can help you better manage and monitor your portfolio of TSFs from anywhere in the world.
The application easily integrates with existing on-site sensors and connectivity networks to enable real-time monitoring, as well as support historical data input for comparative analysis. With a fully customisable interface, multiple sensor map views, custom alarm monitoring, data logging, journaling functionality, sensor health reporting and easy data export, the application provides the most comprehensive set of features of any tailings software.
Tailings Insight – Cloud is compatible with a wide range of sensors and has been enhanced to process nearly all IoT data types, making it easy to integrate with your existing connectivity networks. Once in place, the single cloud dashboard is fully customisable and can be tailored to the needs of your organisation and teams. Your data can be made available to operators, auditors and regulators in real time, giving you the tools you need to become more transparent.
Our portfolio of connectivity services and solutions offer unrivalled levels of choice, mobility and reliability. Whether you’re looking to share large quantities of data quickly or connect your IoT projects in remote regions, we’ve got you covered.
