Rio Tinto — Autonomous Pit-to-Port Asset & Fleet Telemetry Blueprint
Principal Systems & Telemetry Strategist (Independent Case Study)

Executive Context
Heavy mineral operations span remote pits, hundreds of kilometres of heavy-haul rail and bulk marine terminals—an environment where connectivity is patchy and an hour of unplanned downtime is extraordinarily expensive.
The Challenge
Unify fragmented fleet, rail and port data into one continuous chain of custody for ore batches, while predicting failures on autonomous haulage before they stop production.
Architected an end-to-end industrial IoT, satellite-LoRaWAN mesh, and predictive fleet telemetry model for Rio Tinto's heavy mineral extraction and rail-to-port corridors. Modeled ore-grade batch tracking from pit crushers to bulk marine terminals and vibration-based predictive maintenance for autonomous haulage fleets.
