By uniting genuine volumetric detail for 360° coverage of pit walls with a longer operating reach and a built‑in panorama view, the platform enables quicker discovery of movement, stronger trust in warnings, and sharper risk evaluations.

Industry-First GB SAR With Volumetric Precision

Through a new release from its parent group, the radar unit has introduced ArcSAR Neo under the IDS GeoRadar banner, a ground-based GB SAR platform delivering authentic volumetric detail for all-around open-pit observation and monitoring of slopes. By pushing SAR techniques further, this release supplies dependable, high‑grade radar data, strengthening risk control and enabling better choices for management and mine safety across demanding sites.

Where competing GB SAR installations typically reconstruct depth from flat radar slices, ArcSAR Neo records volumetric information directly during observation runs. By acquiring full volume natively, the sensor cuts interference at the origin and lifts the level of data clarity. With troublesome echoes and passing equipment more effectively suppressed, movement estimates become more trustworthy; crews act faster and avoid needless work stoppages.

360° Visual Context, Range, and Fast Setup

In addition to volumetric collection, the built‑in panoramic camera with HDR supplies geo‑referenced, full‑sphere (360°) visuals that are time‑aligned with the radar volume, giving operators clear context while reading the radar data. Higher resolution and a reach of as far as 6 km help with early detection of subtle movements and fast‑developing bench-scale issues. As engineered for field use, the trailer‑based configuration allows one technician to finish deployment in about a quarter of an hour.

Energy Options and Field Continuity

When sunlight fades or weather lingers, photovoltaic panels can run ArcSAR Neo entirely on solar power; for continuity, a diesel supply can be selected instead.
