Underground Inspection App runs structured underground inspections across every site. Inspectors complete forms on a phone or tablet, capture photo and voice evidence on each underground, and raise corrective actions the moment something fails. Managers see underground compliance status, open issues, and performance across every site in real time.
Underground Inspection App runs a structured underground inspection covering ground and roof support, ventilation and gas levels, haul roads and access, equipment and machinery, and emergency and escape systems, with a photo and a sign-off required on each point. Without a system, underground findings live on paper and in chat. An underground fault such as roof or ground instability slips through. An audit then means rebuilding underground evidence from folders.
Underground Inspection App keeps one record per underground and per site, with photo evidence and a named sign-off. Each underground finding is tracked to verified closure. Mine supervisors and safety officers see underground completion and overdue actions across the mining portfolio. Every underground record proves what was checked, when, and by whom.
What to Include in an Underground Inspection App?
A comprehensive underground inspection covers the key areas that affect operations and compliance. Run underground mine inspections with ventilation, ground support, and hazard checks plus offline evidence capture. Your inspection should include sections for ground and roof support, ventilation and gas levels, and haul roads and access, evidence capture, pass/fail or scoring criteria, corrective action assignment, and sign-off, so that nothing is missed and every inspection finding is traceable.
How to Use Underground Inspection App
A consistent routine keeps underground inspections reliable across every site. Follow these steps to run an effective inspection:
Open the assigned underground template on a phone or tablet and confirm the site, underground, date, and inspector.
Work through each section, marking items pass or fail and recording the condition of the underground.
Attach a photo or voice note for any finding, especially roof or ground instability, gas above limit, haul road defect, equipment fault.
For every failed underground item, raise a corrective action with an owner, severity, and due date.
Sign off the underground form. The underground report generates automatically and syncs to the multi-site dashboard.
What Does an Underground Inspection Cover?
An underground inspection covers ground and roof support, ventilation and gas levels, haul roads and access, equipment and machinery, and emergency and escape systems. Mine supervisors and safety officers capture a photo and a reading on each underground point. They work offline where signal is poor, then sign the underground round off. So every underground record proves what was checked, when, and by whom.

How Underground Inspection App Runs an Underground Inspection
Step 1
Define and Deploy
Build the underground template with objective pass-fail criteria and schedule it to mobile teams.
Step 2
Capture and Verify
Inspectors run the inspection with photo evidence on each finding, such as roof or ground instability, gas above limit, haul road defect, equipment fault, and failed items raise corrective actions.
Step 3
Report and Improve
Dashboards built on verified underground data reveal recurring patterns on the underground across every site.

What Underground Teams Fix When Inspections Move Off Paper
Underground work breaks down the moment evidence leaves the form. These are the problems Underground Inspection App is built to remove, and what the team gets back when it does.
Underground issues get logged, then quietly forgotten
A failed item is noted during a routine inspection. Nobody owns it, no date is set, and the next inspection finds the same problem on the same underground. The underground issue is logged, not closed.
Problem
Failed underground items noted but never assigned to anyone
No due date on an underground fix, so nothing is ever overdue
The underground fix is marked done with no proof it happened
Solution
Every failed underground item becomes an owned corrective action
Closure needs an underground verification photo before sign-off
Overdue actions escalate automatically
You find out about an underground problem from a complaint
There is no live view of underground status across sites. The first sign that something failed on the underground is a client call or an incident, by which point the problem is already public.
Problem
No live view of underground status across sites
Underground problems surface as complaints, not as data
Underground risk is invisible until it becomes an incident
Solution
Live multi-site dashboard of underground completion and open issues
Underground risk scoring flags sites trending to failure
Configurable dashboards filter underground results by site and date
Underground checks signed off on paper with no proof the underground was actually checked
An underground inspection is ticked off on a paper form. Weeks later someone asks whether the underground was actually checked, and whether roof or ground instability, gas above limit, haul road defect, equipment fault were looked at. Nobody can say for certain the underground passed.
Problem
Underground checks recorded on paper with no evidence attached
No way to confirm roof or ground instability, gas above limit, haul road defect, equipment fault were actually inspected
Underground findings re-keyed into a spreadsheet, with errors and delay
Solution
One digital underground form with required fields and validation
Photo, GPS, and timestamp on every underground check
Underground findings sync to the dashboard, no re-keying
Frequently Asked Questions
What does Underground Inspection App check on an underground inspection?
Underground Inspection App runs a structured underground inspection covering ground and roof support, ventilation and gas levels, haul roads and access, equipment and machinery, and emergency and escape systems. Each point is captured on mobile with a photo and a reading, and a named inspector signs the round off before it can close. The same template runs on every site, so mine supervisors and safety officers work to one standard rather than a version that drifts between locations. Every record proves what was checked, when, and by whom, so the evidence is ready long before an assessor asks for it.
Which underground defects matter most, and what happens if they are missed?
The inspection targets the underground failures that matter most: roof or ground instability, gas above limit, haul road defect, and equipment fault. Left unchecked, a fault such as roof or ground instability can mean downtime, a safety incident, or a failed audit, so every finding becomes an owned task with a deadline. It stays open until photo proof of the repair is reviewed, and repeat problems are flagged so mine supervisors and safety officers fix the cause rather than the symptom. Prioritising by severity means the most serious issues are handled first, not whichever was reported loudest.
Which standards does Underground Inspection App support for underground work?
Underground Inspection App keeps underground checks aligned to DGMS and MSHA. The photos and readings each standard expects are required fields, so an incomplete check cannot be closed and a gap is caught before an assessor finds it. When a review is due, mine supervisors and safety officers pull the records for the site in scope with one search instead of rebuilding them from folders. Retention and history stay searchable, so proof remains defensible at any point, not only on the day of an audit.
Can teams run underground checks offline and across multiple sites?
Yes. Underground Inspection App is offline-first: teams complete underground checks on iOS or Android with no signal, capturing photos and the evidence each check requires in the field. Each record syncs automatically when the connection returns, with its timestamp intact, and the same template runs on every site. So mine supervisors and safety officers get a live view of what is complete, overdue, or failing per location, and a weak connection in a remote or low-signal area never costs a round or loses a photo.
What evidence proves an underground inspection was completed?
Every completed underground inspection carries gas reading with location, support condition photo, and haul road photo, a GPS location, a timestamp, and a named sign-off. Because the evidence is captured during the round rather than typed up afterwards, mine supervisors and safety officers can show exactly what was checked, when, and by whom. When an assessor or client asks, the record exports in seconds as a branded PDF or a searchable history, so proof never depends on someone remembering where a photo was saved or which folder holds last quarter's records.
