Decomda is a Decentralized Communication and Data Acquisition System for Underground Operations
Working Principle
Data Acquisition and Data Storage
Distributed, decentralized, autonomous and stationary/mobile data logger collect and temporarily store data.
Transportation
Data collectors collect data from any data logger on a mobile basis without a measurement stop, and transport the data through the mine. They can be vehicle- or person-bound.
Data Transfer and Data Evaluation
Data collectors transfer the data from any data logger to a higher-level system (e.g. intranet) for evaluation and visualization.
Advantages
- Independent of complex infrastructure
- Any kind of sensor
- Can be integrated into existing systems
- Can be freely positioned
- No measuring stop necessary
- Low-cost
- Easy to scale
- Suitable at drilling & blasting operations
- Easy to handle
