Method for the Control and Monitoring Applied to the Personnel Working in Mines

Work in the mine is considered to present the highest risk of accidents, which is why it is important that measures can be taken to mitigate these risks for the benefit of the physical safety of workers. In this research, we present a method to monitoring workers, based on being able to work with GPS devices, as a demonstration we work with cellular equipment to be able to verify the use and applications of GPS, as a result we have several forms and configurations that can be had, depending on the work mode in the mines, as a recommendation we present different ways of working and using GPS devices, for which it is necessary to work with repeater stations, in the case of a demonstration, we use the mine's communications network to ensure the sending and receiving of the information on the position of workers.
