Many experts and rescuers from every part of the world joined the mission.Ĭave map details initially came from the “Expedition Thai-Maros 19” cave survey that was conducted by French surveyors, however, the cave cross-section map from 1987 was initially missing. The first step was to gather and generate topographic and geologic data, interpret and extract cave information, and analyse the cross section, topography and hydrology of the cave.ĭMR closely collaborated with Department of Natural Parks, Wildlife and Plant Conservation (DNP), Royal Irrigation Department (RID), Disaster Prevention and Mitigation Department, Royal Thai Navy and others. Unfortunately, at the outset of this mission qualified data was not available. With expertise in geology, DMR was expected to prepare maps and data. This team supported the rescue mission by applying GIS technology to create cave passage maps and analyse the topography and hydrology of the area. to create a team of mapping and GIS experts at the Geohazard Operation Center. The Department of Mineral Resources (DMR) collaborated with Esri Thailand Ltd.
As the world became captivated with the challenge of rescuing the 12 soccer boys and their coach from deep within the Tham Luang Nang Non cave system in Thailand, GIS was applied to understand and share knowledge about the cave.
