Stockpile volumes and inventory measurement

Improve your inventory control with Maptek. Base your material management on accurate, reliable stock volume data

Know your worth

Accurate stockpile inventory measurement is a key part of material management. Financial reporting, regulatory compliance, stock administration and production reporting/forecasting all rely on data that has been compiled according to transparent and trusted methods.

Maptek can help you to obtain accurate stockpile volumes, with complete coverage using precise methods. Our team uses 3D laser scanning technology to provide you with reliable, precise and repeatable volumetric data of your entire inventory without interrupting operations.

Obtain complete and accurate coverage

Stockpiles come in all shapes and sizes and getting accurate volumetric data can present a challenge. Our team has many years experience of surveying stockpiles located outside, in silos, sheds and other storage facilities. Laser scanning is a fast and accurate method that delivers detailed 3D models of stockpiles, and powerful software tools deliver precise volume calculations and change reporting

Laser surveying for proven results

We use our dedicated range of 3D laser scanners to obtain complete and accurate coverage of your site/inventory. Laser scanners using LIDAR technology have become a trusted tool for mines and quarries. They are well suited to any site looking to conduct stockpile reconciliation, end-of-month or other surveying tasks where precise measurements of volumetric data are required.

Safe, trusted and proven technology

We began developing 3D laser scanning technology almost 20 years ago. Today our products are trusted by the world’s top mining and commodity companies, including LaFarge Holcim, Adelaide Brighton Cement, Cement Australia and MCC.

Keep your team safe and operations running

Maptek laser scanners have a long range, which allows us to scan from a safe distance, well away from the slopes of your stockpiles. Furthermore, you don't have to interrupt production, since we can scan from a remote stand off.

Clear reporting for your business needs

We will provide you with detailed volume and tonnage reports and summaries, as well as net material movement from the previous survey. Reports can be customised to suit your needs and surveys scheduled when you need them, independent of weather conditions.
