Geovisor, Liqum and Digita cooperate in real-time mine water monitoring

Geovisor Oy, Liqum Oy and Digita Oy have started a collaboration regarding the real-time monitoring of the quality of mine waters, using an electrochemical method developed by Liqum, combined with Digita's network and Geovisor's environmental technologies and hydrology know-how. The aim of the cooperation is primarily to improve the environmental safety of mines.

Thanks to Liqum's wireless monitoring and automated data analysis service, quality deviations detected in mine waters can be reacted to immediately. In order to function reliably and error-free at every moment, the monitoring system requires stable data transmission connections, which Digita's LoRaWAN technology-based IoT network provides.

 ""We are very pleased that Liqum has chosen Digita's LoRaWAN network for a reliable and stable connection for real-time monitoring of mine water quality. This cooperation promotes water responsibility in mines and enables even better environmental safety in mines," says Tuomas Kolkka, responsible for Digita's IoT business.

Geovisor has been developing water monitoring and sampling for the mining industry in such a way that real-time groundwater-related information-producing equipment can detect changes in the environment immediately, which is an advantage for both mining and society.

 The goal of real-time management of mine waters is that no change in the quality of the waters goes unnoticed. This enhances water management in mines and promotes responsible water use
