In many projects, mining technical teams need to interpret 2D plan data to create useable 3D solids that accurately represent the interpretation of the old workings. These 3D solids are required for resource model depletion, mining design and safety management purposes.
Discover in this video how to calculate distances from existing drillholes to planned underground workings.
Discover how to generate reconciliation heat maps to see the compliance of the as-built surfaces against plan with GEOVIA Surpac deviation analysis tool.
A common problem that underground surveyors have is how to post process their CMS surveys to make them valid. I have travelled to many sites and seen many different ways of doing this, but the problem remains that some of these CMS surveys are difficult to validate in a timely manner.
We’ve received a recent question from one of our Surpac users about combining DTMs, and I thought I would share this on the blog. The specific query was:
I have 2 DTMs that I want to combine, one represents the surface up to the crest of a pit and the other the floor. When combined, they will represent a pit design with the surface extending away from the pit.
Also, is there a Z factor or vertical exaggeration tool that can be applied temporarily to DTMs?
SCL provides a number of excellent functions to create, add, import and manipulate layers. There is also great reference material in the Surpac->Help menu. My aim in this series is to introduce some of these features in more layman’s terms. Some knowledge of how macro’s work with variables and commands will certainly be helpful but is not essential.

Certainly, one of my favorite features of Surpac is the ability to script and automate tasks using TCL. Using the record macro function allows for an easy way to loop and repeat a series of existing functions within Surpac, and can unlock a lot of potential for creative Surpac users.
