A Field Work Safety Monitoring System based on Beidou satellite for hard and dangerous regions in Western China

摘要

A Field Work Safety Monitoring System for Western China was build up to fill the gaps in real-time and dynamic monitoring for geological survey field work in hard and dangerous regions. The system was based on Beidou satellite network, private network of China Geological Survey and mobile communication network. It combined the Geographic Information System technology, safety production management and dynamic monitoring for vehicle and staff. Applications of the system indicated that it could improve the security of geological survey and guarantee the safety of lives and property in hard and dangerous regions. The occupational hazard and accident risk was reduced significantly to ensure successful implementation of the geological survey work.
