From data to decisions: How real-time monitoring helps achieve GISTM compliance
September 25, 2025
Summer Sun writes in Canadian Mining Magazine about how real-time monitoring technology can help meet the GISTM framework
Dam safety is a critical responsibility in mining, especially when dealing with tailings storage facilities (TSFs). A proactive approach using real-time data visualization and remote monitoring can transform even the most inaccessible sites into examples of modern tailings management. By combining geotechnical instrumentation, advanced data analytics, and cloud-based dashboards, operators can significantly improve site safety and work toward full compliance with the Global Industry Standard on Tailings Management (GISTM).
As a digital solutions manager at ²ÝÝ®´«Ã½, Summer Sun has supported the design and implementation of digital monitoring systems that advance both safety and performance. She was featured in Canadian Mining Magazine to share how real-time monitoring technology can be deployed to meet the GISTM framework, reduce risk, and streamline decision-making across the lifecycle of a TSF.
