Abstract

Digital Mine is a key research domain of Digital Earth. Because of the spatio-temporal, three-dimensional and intrinsically dynamic nature of mine safety management data, it is difficult to make a breakthrough in this domain. As a key part of Digital Mine, the construction of the Digital Mine Safety Management System (DMSMS) pushes Digital Mine a step forward from operation as a mere concept to achievement as a realistic system. In this paper, the technical framework of the DMSMS in the framework of Digital Mine is discussed, including its data, function and application layers. A key technology is then studied in detail that will enable the construction of the three-dimensional geological environment and the visualization and integration of the mine safety data.
