GroundHog FMS Open Pit
About GroundHog FMS Open Pit
GroundHog's open-pit FMS delivers real-time monitoring of all surface activities from production bench to central office. It provides AI-driven dispatch optimization, automated load counting, GPS tracking, geofencing, and payload monitoring for any OEM equipment. The system runs on commercially available tablets, dramatically reducing hardware costs, and connects via open APIs with SAP, ArcGIS, and mine planning software.
The platform also includes Short Interval Control (SIC), an AI-based scheduler that auto-generates daily mine plans by sequencing activities, equipment, and personnel. Integrated telematics capture payload, engine data, fuel consumption, and fault codes. A collision avoidance system activates alarms and can auto-stop equipment to prevent incidents.

AutoMine
by Sandvik
AutoMine is Sandvik's comprehensive equipment automation product family covering underground and surface mining. The underground portfolio includes Tele-Remote (single-machine remote control), Lite (single-machine autonomous), Multi-Lite (multi-machine autonomous), and Fleet (full-fleet automation with automated mission assignment and traffic control). AutoMine enables trucks and loaders to autonomously navigate mines during full production cycles, including shift changes and blast clearance.
DISPATCH Fleet Management System
by Modular Mining
DISPATCH uses linear programming, best-path, and dynamic programming algorithms to automatically assign haul trucks to loading and dumping points, minimizing queue times and maximizing production. It provides centralized management of all mine operations — equipment allocation, shift changes, refueling, and downtime events — via real-time mine graphics and in-cab operator guidance. The system supports all major truck and equipment brands with over 175 OEM interfaces.
FleetControl
by Haultrax
FleetControl adds active dispatch and operational control capabilities on top of FleetOps. It provides drag-and-drop fleet assignment, material tracking, time and activity management, and mine plan execution through a simple, supervisor-friendly interface designed for frontline use rather than dedicated dispatch controllers.
FleetOps
by Haultrax
FleetOps automatically captures production data, cycle times, and equipment utilization through GPS tracking and algorithmic interpretation — no in-cab operator screens or input required. This eliminates data-entry burden on operators while providing accurate production reporting, KPI tracking, and asset utilization metrics. The store-and-forward architecture eliminates the need for expensive site-wide wireless connectivity. FleetOps partners with Australian hardware firm Motium for rugged, OEM-agnostic edge computing devices.
