A nonlinear modeling and forecasting system of earth fractures based on coupling of artificial neural network and geographical information system—exemplified by earth fractures in Yuci City, Shanxi, China

Earth fracturing or fissuring is a natural phenomenon and a major geohazard in many countries. The factors that cause the earth to fracture were analyzed in Yuci City, in Shanxi Province of China using the geographical information system (GIS). A nonlinear simulation and assessment model of earth fracturing was established using the artificial neural network (ANN) technology to simulate the ...

Project - LOZA GPR - Mapping Geohazards, Karst, Historic Mine Workings and Geology

Earth Scan was asked to help define a large plunging karst feature in a large open pit gold mine. The karst tube had collapsed and represented a potential hazard to mine excavations. Earth Scan was ...
