Datamine Discover 3D
Datamine Discover 3D
Bringing even greater insight to your data
In July 2017, Datamine acquired the Encom Discover suite from Pitney Bowes.
Datamine Discover 3D is a world class combination of MapInfo Pro and Discover 3D.
Discover 3D works in conjunction with Discover 2D providing a seamless link from traditional 2D into 3D GIS.
Discover is designed to meet the needs of geologists, environmental scientists, cartographers, exploration managers, and petroleum engineers.
Share your Discover 3D environments using the free Discover Viewer, where users can visualise and fully interact with any pre-created Discover 3D session.
Work with Discover Drillhole Projects in 3D
Display full or sub-sections of drillhole projects, with other datasets, in 3D directly from the 2D window
Drape 2D Data on Elevation Models
Display all of your data relative to true ground level for increased accuracy in interpretation
3D navigation and Fly-throughs
Button
Create and Analyse Voxel Models
Use downhole data to create 3D grids, and display gridded surfaces using z-values
Contour Voxel Models
Display voxel models as solids, or threshold, contour, isosurface or slice view
Create Block Models
DXF block models can be created from 2D interpretational linework brought into 3D
Verify 2D Interpretations
Opening a 2D section in 3D allows simple verification of the interpretation
Display Maps, Sections and Level Plans in 3D
Digitise interpretations, such as faults, directly on-screen. Apply height and depth extrusions to objects from 2D
Slice Views
Use custom- or stepped-slices for views through your orebody
