O TYM ODCINKU
Join hosts Andre Silva, Ritvick Bhalla, and Sebastian Lobo-Guerrero as they kick off this special six-episode series exploring the Latin American geotechnical and mining sectors. In Episode 1, we dive into the heart of mining in LATAM, examining how cutting-edge technologies—InSAR, electronic sensors, UAVs, and integrated software platforms—are shaping operations from underground tunnels in Chile to open-pit mines in Brazil.
Our guests, Daniela Pollak, Hylltton Bazan and Mauro Codevolla, share firsthand experiences implementing advanced instrumentation and remote sensing solutions in diverse terrains. They discuss:
1. Key challenges the region faces (terrain complexity, regulatory frameworks, logistics)
2. Successful case studies: integrating Remote Sensing and IoT for real-time deformation monitoring
3. The role of automated data acquisition and AI/ML for predictive maintenance on integrated intelligence platforms.
4. How collaboration between local engineers and global experts is driving innovation
5. Career advice for aspiring geotechnical and mining engineers in LATAM
Whether you’re an engineer, researcher, student, or industry stakeholder, this episode offers a comprehensive look at how data-driven monitoring and digital transformation are fostering safer, more efficient mining operations across Latin America. Tune in to hear about real-world applications, lessons learned, and next-generation trends that will define the future of geotech in the region.
