Environmental Monitoring and Mining Exploration
We specialise in hyperspectral imaging and ground truthing solutions, as well as portable and handheld NIR, FTIR, LIBS and XRF spectroscopy for environmental monitoring and mining exploration applications.
Environmental monitoring is used in environmental impact assessments, to monitor the state of a natural environment and the impact that human activity may have on it. Our solutions can help monitor soil and water quality in order to protect it from negative impact caused by human activity.
Mineral exploration aims to discover deposits of minerals that can be used to meet the resource needs of society. Our solutions enable the identification of new mineral prospects such as gemstones, fuels and industrial raw materials.

Hyperspectral Imaging
Headwall Photonics’ Hyperspectral Imaging Sensors are ideal for a wide range of environmental monitoring applications. From soil analysis to environmental change detection, the small, light hyperspectral imaging sensors are expertly designed for interchangeable use in lab, field and airborne applications.
With outstanding spatial and spectral resolution, a wide field of view and a high signal to noise ratio, Hyperspec® Hyperspectral Imaging Sensors offer optimal performance for even the most demanding applications and harsh environments.

Ground Truthing
Designed to work in conjunction with hyperspectral data collection, the ASD FieldSpec Series of high-performance portable spectroradiometers are ideal for remote sensing and ground truthing applications. Collect solar reflectance, radiance, irradiance and reflectance spectral data with improved speed, performance and portability.

Portable Vis-NIR Spectroscopy
The ASD TerraSpec is a rugged, field portable Vis-NIR spectrometer with the resolution and performance required for providing rapid mineral analysis and valuable geometallurgical information that can be used in mining exploration.
Trusted by the mining industry for more than a decade the only real time technology that can accurately measure mineral abundances in the field or in the lab.

Handheld NIR Spectrometry
The ASD TerraSpec Halo is a lightweight, portable, full range near-infrared spectrometer designed to revolutionise the mineral exploration process. With a simple push of a button, the TerraSpec Halo delivers mineralogy results in a matter of seconds, a rapid method to identify minerals and decrease associated exploration costs.

Handheld FTIR Spectroscopy
The lightweight, ergonomic 4300 Handheld FTIR spectrometer from Agilent Technologies enables the direct identification and assessment of high-value materials without sample extraction, making handheld FTIR a true non-destructive testing solution for use in composites, coatings, polymers, mining and other environmental and material applications.

Handheld LIBS Spectroscopy
SciAps provide a range of handheld LIBS analysers for rapid mineral identification and analysis. This revolutionary technology includes a stacked, high resolution spectrometer that spans from 190 nm – 950 nm, covering the emission lines for every element from H to U.

Handheld XRF Spectroscopy
SciAps’ handheld XRF analysers are the world’s smallest, lightest and fastest high precision XRF analysers. Built on the Android platform for global connectivity, seamlessly print or email results for easy data management.
