2M+Tonnes Measured
Overview
Aeronica provides quarterly volumetric surveys for major mining operators including JSW Steel and Indian Oil Corporation. Our Aeroni.AI engine processes drone-captured point clouds into accurate volume calculations, change detection maps, and regulatory compliance reports.
Key Project: Quarterly Volumetric Audits for Iron Ore Mine
A leading steel manufacturer required accurate quarterly volume measurements across three open-cast iron ore mines for production accounting, royalty calculation, and operational planning. Traditional ground survey methods were taking 7-10 days per site with limited coverage.
