Abstract
The authors discuss the topical problems and specifics of operation of waterworks facilities in the mining industry in the Arctic zone of Russia. The integrated technical approach is developed for the real-time remote inspection and monitoring of waterworks facilities and natural areas of preferential protection nearby mining-influence zones using advanced space and digital technologies. The mining-induced risk prediction and control is implemented through the assistance of digital twins and risk charts, with ranking of objects by the level of the adverse effects using generalized spatial data obtained in construction of 3D geo-seepage model of rock mass, geomechanical modeling of deformation and permeation processes, as well as from decoding and analysis of satellite images of industrial pollution spots in territorial water and in lowest atmospheric layer. The outcomes of 3D geo-seepage modeling at waterworks facilities are described. The effectivity of remote assessment and control over waterworks facilities and water areas with the help of the Earth remote sensing is demonstrated. The research findings on the environmental impact of induced air pollution in a mining region are discussed.
