Problem
Monitoring ground deformation and surface anomalies traditionally involves costly and infrequent data collection, hindering the ability to proactively manage risks associated with ground instability. Existing methods often lack the precision and wide-area coverage needed for effective risk assessment in industries like mining, infrastructure, and energy.
Solution
Dares Technology provides ground displacement measurements and mapping services using InSAR (Interferometric Synthetic Aperture Radar) satellite monitoring. Their technology delivers reliable, high-resolution data on surface motion, enabling early detection of potential geotechnical hazards. By processing radar satellite imagery from various missions, Dares offers customized monitoring solutions tailored to specific project needs. Clients gain access to an online WebGIS platform for data integration, visualization, and interpretation, facilitating informed decision-making and risk mitigation.
Target Audience
The primary customers are private companies and governmental institutions in the mining, infrastructure, and energy sectors responsible for managing ground stability risks and ensuring the safety of operations.
