The coal mining industry is one of the industries that possess inherent risks since workers are faced with a range of risks that include health risks, the extreme environment, and geology. To address these daunting tasks, we propose the deployment of an Integrated Safety and Monitoring System (ISMS) enhanced with LoRaWAN and IoT gadgets. A wide range of detectors, such as thermal sensors, gaseous detectors, oxygen and cardiac monitors, and state-of-the-art minerals analysis technologies, are integrated into our comprehensive ISMS design. Together, these detectors keep surveillance of the health of colliers along with their surroundings. The primary feature of ISMS is the continuous data transmit capability of the LoRaWAN invention, which permits the error-free transfer of critical sensor facts to a storage system that is remotely placed. This is acting as a kind of control station, giving officials data they can use to tackle safety problems and make things less dangerous quickly. Another special provision that ISMS offers is a series of coloured indicators representing severity levels. The device also saves the lives of coal miners in critical situations as it improves response time for search and rescue operations. Such powerful safety precautions during coal mining operations in this case can be considered as a huge advancement with the integration of smart appliances and LoRaWAN technology into ISMS. This improves operational efficiency as well, incites smart choices, and makes more powerful already existing security mechanisms. The proposed system, ISMS, is innovative and progressive, leading to the development of new safety layers in the high-risk arena of mining.
