Discover.
Exploration GIS suite
Choose between ArcGIS Pro MapInfo
Datamine’s Discover Suite of products is focused on the Exploration stages of the mining value chain, taking you from regional due diligence to delineating an ore body of economic potential. A complete toolset for the majority of tasks an explorer needs to undertake, it removes the need to juggle multiple pieces of software or plugins, with seamless workflows in one software package.
Discover can help you with all the activities needed to complete your tasks during the exploration phase of the mining lifecycle.
Discover adds the extra ability to bring in mining and exploration style data that ArcGIS Pro doesn’t actively support like drillhole and trench data, sections and 2D and 3D data from all the major mining and exploration packages. Discover for ArcGIS Pro is the perfect tool for collating and centralising all your project data into one place.
ArcGIS Pro's web sharing capability can be used to easily display maps on your company website to aid with community consultation.
Discover Mobile can be used as a handheld data gathering tool for field collection of conversations with landholders. As Discover Mobile can be downloaded by anyone that you share your project plans and that downloads the app. Use it as an onsite consultation tool so key stakeholders can easily visualise your intentions to aid with your conversations. Use it to help with planned access conversations and utilise the geofence tool to keep your workers out of sensitive areas.
Once you’re on the ground, Discover for ArcGIS Pro is seamlessly integrated with Discover Mobile to enable you to take data into and collect data in the field. Discover mobile is free for anyone to download. Quickly set up your project on your desktop then seamlessly sync it with your mobile device. Discover Mobile is built specifically for mining exploration workflows with features like working totally offline, structural compass, outcrop mapping and drillhole viewing. Your projects can be synced with multiple users so teams can work on one project. All the workflows in Discover Mobile are designed specifically for the tasks an explorer would need.
Once you have imported your data analyse it within ArcGIS Pro's amazing 3D capability and Discover for ArcGIS Pro's capability to section and model your data in a completely seamless 2D to 3D environment. Do sectional interpretations of your data and then send it to 3D to be modelled quick and easily with Discover for ArcGIS Pro's sectioning and modelling workflows. Extensive drillhole tools allow you to analyse your drilling data via compositing or clipping to 3D features. ArcGIS Pro's extensive voxel data editing functions can enable you to clip, section and iso surface your block models to help give you an understanding of where you should target once they have been imported using Discover's extensive importation tools.
Discover for ArcGIS Pro has planning tools specifically for explorers, we have specific to plan sampling traverses or grids with industry specific functions like clipping point grids to boundaries, alternating sample number directions or adding infill lines. Drillhole planning tools that can plan holes by collar, az, dip, target az dip or collar to target with options to allow for hole deviation. Planned drillholes can be managed and exported to CSV for any other programme to ingest. All planned data can be exported easily to Discover Mobile.
As an explorer, you will continually need to communicate your story if it is to raise finance on a public market, demonstrate to a government body what you have done in your technical report, creating an IM for sale of assets or explain to management what you are doing and what you’ll do next. Discover for ArcGIS Pro has the ability to create high quality outputs of sections, long sections, 3D scenes and 2D maps containing drilling or trenches. ArcGIS Pro's web serves capability also enables the ability to export you outputs as either 2D or 3D web maps.
A tailored solution for geology and exploration professionals
A tailored solution for geology and exploration professionals – Studio EM leverages the technology of Datamine’s hugely successful Studio software series, making it highly compatible with many other software packages. Studio EM is the perfect geological analysis solution for increasing productivity and on-site efficiencies. It includes point and string editing, wireframing, basic block modeling and estimation functionality as well as the ability to dynamically link to existing drill hole databases and Datamine’s GIS solution, Discover. Other tools to design drill holes and plan drilling campaigns are standard and solve your former analysis complications with on-the-fly statistical analysis with histograms and scatterplots.
On-the-fly statistical analysis with visual histograms and scatterplots.
Flexible tools that allow creation of wireframe solids or surfaces, quick creation of volumetric models and basic grade estimation.
Produce section plots, plan plots, strip logs, reports and comprehensive 3D viewings.
Application for analysing and presenting geophysical data in profiles, maps and 3D displays
PA Explorer is an application for analysing and presenting geophysical data in profiles, maps and 3D displays. The information that can be analysed by this software includes single or multi-channel data acquired from airborne or ground surveys, including electro-magnetics (AEM) and potential field (gravity or magnetic) data.
PA Explorer will deliver more results from your existing software investments through better use of visualisation and cross-product integration.
PA Explorer provides you with a range of interpretive enhancement tools that include line, section, grid and voxel gridding, filtering, calculators and toolkits.
PA Explorer provides a rich environment for building interpretations that cover anomaly picking, map interpretations, section interpretation and 3D geological model building. The Feature Manager utility uses a 3D object database to capture your interpretation elements from which you can build sophisticated 3D targets, models, surfaces, faults, geological units and intrusions.
