Glencore Mining

 

The customer needed an easier and more efficient way to plan mining operations. Normally it could take months and all of the data was 2D making it difficult to plan out an operation. By taking LIDAR data that had been converted to CAD data were able to create a 3D mesh representation of the planned operation. The operation was an extraction of a Stope or section of ore in the earth. The customer was very pleased with the results and stated this would make it much easier to plan and execute their mining operations. This was a shared experience of up to 2-8 users all at once wearing a HoloLens.
