Traditional aerial survey has been widely used for exploration and general mine site planning for some time. Over the past few years, the technology has come on in leaps and bounds and the range of products vastly extended. The problem with legacy technology has been the high cost and slow responses for product delivery using expensive camera systems permanently mounted in fixed-wing aircraft. These challenges are increasingly being addressed by using drones as a capture platform. However, this too comes with a myriad of challenges around the size of the area, flight time, mobilisation to remote sites, quality of products etc. Outline Global is an Australian innovation company that has developed and commercialised a hybrid technology to bring together the best of both worlds able to deliver outstanding quality products at more affordable prices. We are one of the very few companies to have designed and developed location-based artificial intelligence solutions for the industry at scale. The company conducts research, develops customer sensors, processes spatial data, develops complex AI models and delivers this all to customers in a practical usable way - our track record speaks for itself. One of the bottlenecks in Artificial intelligence is the availability of good quality training data for models, no more so than in the spatial data environment. At Outline, we specialise in training data design and preparation directly applicable to customers modelling environments.
