Abstract: Intelligent mining platform carries out real-time measurement， control and digitization of mine， human，machine and environment.It can enable the whole mine to have the ability of self-analysis and decision-making，so as to realize the visualization， automation，intelligence and unmanned in the process of mine production management，and achieve the goal of high yield，high efficiency and safety.The construction of geo-video system is an important means to solve the safety problem in the intelligent mining platform.In view of the location problem of geo-video monitoring equipment in the mine safety，this paper proposes a location model of mining monitoring based on geographical scene.Firstly， this model extracts a set of extensible geographic scene semantic classification models for monitoring location by comparing and analyzing four aspects of geographic entities，geographic scenes，and monitoring equipment and location principles in several typical semantic models.Then，the monitoring candidate group and the horizon range of monitoring equipment are input as parameters into the set coverage model based on monitoring location selection，and the linear programming method is used to solve the problem.Finally，the test results of a mining area proves that the model can scientifically and reasonably locate monitoring equipment in the study area.The experimental results show that the candidate points are evenly distributed and have certain regularity.This proofs that the method can replace the previous manual screening methods，improve the efficiency and accuracy of site selection，and has a better stress capability for the ever-changing monitoring requirements and environmental elements.
