Abstract: Problems about definition of wisdom mine in existing literatures were analyzed. According to definition method of specific difference addition genus, eight common attributes and four unique attributes of wisdom mine were summarized through comparative analysis of relationships among wisdom mine, automation mine, informatization mine and digitalized mine, so as to form a definition of wisdom mine. The wisdom mine is based on technologies of spatial information, Internet of things, cloud computing, big data, artificial intelligence, database, data communication, true three-dimensional geological model, virtual reality, wisdom mining and so on, and applies all kinds of sensors, automatic control systems and component type software synthetically to realize automatic operation, intelligent decision and self-learning.
