Benchmark Monitoring services

Benchmark Monitoring has designed the Kaboom blast monitoring system to address compliance requirements for air blast and vibration monitoring in the mining and construction sectors. This bespoke solution is fully automated, providing real-time data to ensure accurate monitoring. The Kaboom system integrates with blast fume monitoring, utilizing advanced gas instruments tailored to specific project needs. Additionally, it features a Blast Permissions Tool that processes high-frequency meteorological data and user-defined rules, advising mine site personnel on the feasibility of blasting activities based on current weather conditions. This integration aims to enhance operational efficiency while maintaining environmental and safety standards.

The meteorological monitoring solutions provided by Benchmark Monitoring are engineered to offer flexibility in design while ensuring high-quality data collection, which is crucial for understanding atmospheric conditions within specific air sheds. These solutions are pivotal in air quality management, particularly in the context of planning and operating mining and heavy industry endeavors. The monitoring systems leverage sensors from leading manufacturers to provide real-time data on various meteorological parameters such as wind speed and direction, air temperature and humidity, solar radiation, and more. The offerings can be customized with telemetry, data reporting, and web-based services tailored to meet specific operational requirements. Additionally, the systems include capabilities for visibility monitoring, soil moisture and leaf wetness measurement, barometric pressure tracking, and lightning detection, along with early warning systems for environmental monitoring.

Benchmark Monitoring offers custom-designed real-time noise monitoring systems that cater to long-term environmental compliance and industrial noise policy applications. These systems are tailored for both omnidirectional and directional noise monitoring, targeting two primary applications: event-based monitoring such as for rail, road, or heavy industry noise incidents, and long-term background noise assessment. The systems incorporate advanced noise processing engines built on a sturdy industrial platform, capable of handling complex onboard data processing of audio signals and noise metrics, enabling accurate characterization of noise sources. These solutions are available in both static and portable formats, with fully customizable web-based data portals to address specific noise monitoring needs. The systems are suitable for a wide range of applications, providing robust and expandable processing capabilities.

Benchmark Monitoring offers a comprehensive suite of hydrological monitoring solutions designed to adhere to industry standards for environmental monitoring. Their systems operate as autonomous platforms capable of collecting a variety of environmental data, tailored to meet specific client demands. These systems are engineered to perform reliably under harsh environmental conditions, ensuring consistent and accurate measurements. With a focus on engineering excellence, Benchmark Monitoring provides water level and water quality monitoring stations that are essential for effective environmental monitoring.
