The mining industry is inherently hazardous, and there is a growing emphasis on improving safety conditions for workers. Automation technologies enable the remote operation of equipment and the use of autonomous vehicles, reducing the risk of accidents and improving worker safety. 

The increasing need for resources and minerals due to population increase and industrialization is propelling the connected mining fleet management market's growth. To meet this demand, mining operations are growing, and linked fleet management solutions are essential. These solutions assist mining companies in cutting costs, improving planning and judgement, and increasing operational effectiveness.  

Implementing mining automation systems requires significant upfront investment in equipment, software, infrastructure, and training. The initial costs associated with adopting automation technologies can be a barrier for some mining companies, especially smaller operations. 

Mining operations cause erosion and the production of greenhouse gases, including carbon dioxide. They also cause the disruption of biomes. These procedures exacerbate long-term ecological damage, underscoring the vital necessity of sustainable mining methods to lessen their negative effects on the environment and protect ecosystems. Furthermore, lesser ore grades have been extracted from overuse of natural resources.
