Abstract:The threedimensional aerial survey results based on ArcGIS have a wide application prospect in ecological restoration and openpit mine production. In view of current situation of geological environment of an open pit in Rizhao city, based on threedimensional aerial survey of UAV and relevant functions of ArcGIS, the application of ecological restoration design of the pit, the calculation of soil and stone allowance, the guidance of open pit production and threedimensional visual display have been studied. Through multistage UAV aerial survey, multistage DSM data in the process of project implementation are obtained to further realize the supervision and dynamic reserve monitoring of the whole process of ecological restoration and mine production
