Securing Mineral Supply Chains Through Space-Based Monitoring and Real-Time Analytics

Milky-Way Visuals Ltd provides intelligent, integrated mining surveillance services powered by satellite technology, UAVs, and etc. Our solutions enable end-to-end visibility, from in-situ extraction to international export logistics, ensuring transparency, compliance, and operational efficiency across the entire mining value chain.

We deliver real-time spatial intelligence to detect unauthorized activity, monitor legal operations, and safeguard natural resources with unmatched accuracy.

Exploration and Resource estimation

Identifying high-potential areas of mineral deposits and improving the accuracy of resource estimation are critical steps in enhancing the efficiency and effectiveness of mineral exploration and development.

Mine Planning and Design

Assessing the economic and environmental impact, along with optimizing operations planning, is essential for ensuring sustainable and cost-effective resource development strategies.

Mining Operations

Optimizing asset management, reducing equipment downtime, and enabling efficient predictive maintenance are key strategies for enhancing operational reliability, minimizing costs, and extending the lifespan of critical infrastructure and machinery.

Mine Rehabilitation and Reclamation

Environmental footprint monitoring and reporting, along with identifying environmental hazards, are vital for ensuring regulatory compliance, promoting sustainability, and mitigating potential ecological risks associated with industrial activities.

Core Capabilities & Technologies

High-resolution optical, multispectral, and Synthetic Aperture Radar (SAR) imagery powers our ability to detect illegal excavation sites and mining expansion, monitor vegetation loss and surface alterations in mineral belts, and observe land-use changes in concession zones under any weather or lighting conditions.
Using historical and real-time imagery, our AI platform provides automated detection of surface disturbances, predictive modelling of high-risk illegal activity zones, and intelligent pattern recognition to support effective compliance audits.
Our drone systems feature thermal, LiDAR, and high-definition visual payloads for mapping artisanal and industrial-scale mining sites, conducting volumetric assessments of pits, stockpiles, and tailings, and enabling on-demand inspections of inaccessible or hazardous terrain.
We provide satellite-linked tracking and geofencing systems for monitoring mineral movement from mine sites to storage facilities, processing plants, and ports; detecting deviations in haulage routes or unscheduled stops; verifying export declarations by tracking shipment destinations via AIS/GNSS integration; and reconciling declared volumes with physically tracked consignments to detect under-reporting. All movements are time-stamped and geo-verified for audit readiness and secure archiving.
Our platform delivers interactive geospatial maps of mining, transport, and export operations, real-time alerts and analytics dashboards for enforcement and oversight, and seamless integration with third-party GIS, regulatory systems, and ERP platforms.
