Mining Fleet Management

A mining fleet management system combines GPS tracking, equipment telemetry, fuel monitoring, engine-hour data, alerts, and reports. It helps teams track haul trucks and heavy equipment, control diesel use, reduce idle time, plan maintenance, and keep production moving across every mine site.

From field data to daily action

How mining fleet management works

Aether turns equipment and fuel data into a practical workflow for mine supervisors, plant and machinery teams, maintenance teams, and management.

1. Connect assets

Install compatible GPS, fuel, ignition, and equipment interfaces on mobile or fixed assets.

2. Capture activity

Collect location, trips, engine hours, idling, stoppages, refills, and fuel-level changes.

3. Detect exceptions

Apply geofences and event rules to highlight route deviations, draining, and abnormal use.

4. Review and act

Use alerts, dashboards, and reports to investigate losses and improve deployment decisions.

Improve uptime, output, and cost control.

Bring every mining asset into one operational view

Mining fleets work across large, harsh, and often low-connectivity sites. Aether combines location, fuel, utilization, and equipment data for control-room and field teams.
Unlike typical fleets, your assets:

  • Locate equipment across pits, haul roads, workshops, and stockyards
  • Compare productive movement, engine hours, idling, and stoppages
  • Plan service from actual runtime and equipment activity
  • Investigate fuel loss with time, location, and operating context

Control movement across pits and haul roads

Create operating zones and route rules for active pits, loading areas, dumping points, workshops, fuel bays, and restricted areas.

  • Receive entry, exit, route-deviation, and after-hours movement alerts
  • Review trips, cycle times, stoppages, and turnaround delays
  • Find available equipment without relying on manual calls
  • Maintain a traceable movement history for operational review

Measure diesel use with operating context

Check every refill, fuel drop, and consumption trend against location, ignition, engine hours, and asset activity.

  • Monitor tank levels and detect sudden draining events.
  • Verify mobile-bowser and fuel-bay refuelling records.
  • Compare consumption by asset, shift, site, or operating hour.

Frequently Asked Questions

A mining fleet management system combines GPS tracking, equipment telemetry, fuel monitoring, alerts, and reports to manage haul trucks and heavy equipment across mine sites.
Calibrated fuel sensors and event rules can identify sudden fuel-level drops, unexpected refuelling, and consumption exceptions for investigation.
Location, ignition, engine-hour, idle-time, trip, and stoppage data show which assets are productive, underused, or delayed so supervisors can rebalance work.
Compatible devices can store records when coverage is unavailable and transmit buffered data after connectivity returns. Capability depends on device selection and site conditions.
Haul trucks, tippers, excavators, wheel loaders, dozers, drills, graders, tankers, light vehicles, generators, and fixed diesel tanks can be included.
Improve visibility and control across your mining fleet.
