Mineral exploration and mine planning increasingly depend on remote sensing to target prospective areas and monitor environmental impact; this course builds those skills for practitioners in the extractives sector. Participants work with multispectral imagery and geological data throughout.
This course builds GIS and remote sensing capability specific to mining and exploration workflows, covering multispectral and hyperspectral imagery interpretation for mineral alteration mapping, structural geology mapping from satellite and DEM data, and GIS-based exploration target prioritisation using multi-criteria overlay of geological, geochemical, and geophysical layers.
Participants also cover the environmental monitoring side of mining - land disturbance and rehabilitation tracking using multi-temporal imagery - along with building the concession and tenement maps and exploration reports that regulatory and investor reporting requires.
By the end of this course, participants will be able to:
Day 1
Day 2
Day 3
Day 4
Day 5
Day 6
Day 7
Day 8
Day 9
Day 10
This course is ideal for professionals applying spatial analysis to exploration and mining operations.
Participants who complete this course receive a Certificate of Completion from Vision Reach Global Consultancy. The course fee includes training materials, software lab access, sample multispectral imagery and geological datasets, facilitation by a mining GIS and remote sensing specialist, and a certificate presented at the close of the programme.
Everything you need to know about this course before you register.
By the end of the GIS and Remote Sensing in Mining and Exploration Training programme, you'll be able to interpret multispectral imagery for mineral alteration mapping, map structural geology features from satellite and elevation data, prioritise exploration targets using multi-criteria overlay analysis, and integrate geological, geochemical, and geophysical data layers in gis. The full breakdown of topics is covered session by session in the Course Outline tab above.
This course is ideal for professionals applying spatial analysis to exploration and mining operations. Typical delegates include Exploration Geologists and Geoscientists, Mining GIS Analysts and Technicians, Environmental and Compliance Officers in Mining, Mine Planning and Survey Staff, and Extractives Sector Regulators and Policy Officers.
