Quarry Digital Twin

A picture is worth a thousand words

There’s nothing worse than trying to work with a bunch of paper plans, all in different scales and impossible to overlay one on top of the other when you are trying to plan, let alone having to determine distances and volumes using a scale ruler and calculator.

We work with you to create above-ground and below-ground digital twins of your operation.

An above-ground model is generally based on a drone platform like Propeller or DroneDeploy and contains all survey data, boundaries, pit and dump designs, services etc.

A below ground model is generally built on a web based geological platform and brings together drill holes data, block models, geological models and geotechnical data.”

Once setup, stakeholders can find, view and overlay the data they require, downloading it as needed and ensuring a “single source of truth”, reducing both management time and potential error.

A good drone platform is a sound foundation for building an above-ground digital twin.
