Cover Story: A highwall is the core of most mines as mineral feeding mining production originates there. Unexpected rock and earth falls can risk human lives and the economy activity; hence, continuous and detailed highwall monitoring is required. Topographic surveys of a highwall are very complex due a variety of challenging conditions: highwalls are vertical, long, and they often lack easy and safe access paths. We demonstrate based on SfM methodology that a facade drone flight mode combined with a nadir camera angle and automatically programmed with a computer-based mission planning software provides the most accurate and detailed topographies in the shortest time and with increased flight safety.
