PUNNET - Innovation in land deformation monitoring

What is PUNNET?

PUNNET is a satellite-based land stability monitoring and mapping solution for exploration, construction and environmental protection industries. PUNNET offers a major step forward in land deformation monitoring for sectors such as oil & gas, mining and exploration.

What services are provided?

The PUNNET service uses a series of images created from satellite data to create millimetric-precision maps of land surface deformation. It supports adherence to regulations and industry standards. These include:

baseline surveys to assess site suitability for operations
post-operational surveys
ongoing monitoring of active sites

Who is it for?

Mining industries
Oil & gas
Civil engineering industries such as tunnel and underground, road and building construction
Environmental agencies worldwide
National and International regulatory bodies

Why do we need PUNNET?

PUNNET provides solutions for:

Geohazard Monitoring:

Land subsidence due to natural or man-made resources
Landslide events and risks
Seismic monitoring
Proximity risk for larger man-made structures such as bridges, tunnels and buildings.

Monitoring and Management of Natural Resource Extraction:

Assessment of areas for land instability surveys
Management of extraction processes
Post-extraction environmental impact assessment
