This release introduces more accurate slope modelling together with a faster pushback algorithm. Nested pit shell graphs now use factors instead of pit numbers, while pushbacks are mined consistently by default, producing more predictable results with less configuration.
Across the core system, you can now create multiple parallel or string-based sections directly in the 3D window. Flexible controls for orientation, spacing and reference points make it easier to generate sections suited to your data and modelling requirements. Boolean tools also support key-field filtering for input wireframes and output grouping, providing greater control over unions, intersections, differences and extracted results.
New and improved commands streamline several common workflows. These enhancements help you manage wireframe data, create consistent digital terrain models (DTMs), generate outlines, calculate True Dip, extend strings to wireframes, insert string points at intersections, import maps and export selected wireframes.
Performance and data-management improvements extend throughout the 3D workspace. Cylinder-rendered drillholes are displayed more quickly, and the Edit Legend Wizard can now update existing legends. You can also export string data in RocScience Dips format and manage multiple overlays simultaneously from the Project Data control bar.
Selection settings on the Home ribbon have been simplified, making frequently used options easier to manage. The Edit, Report, Model, Digitize and Format ribbons are also more consistent across planning products, providing a more familiar experience when moving between workflows.
About Studio NPVS+
Studio NPVS+ is an end-to-end strategic mine planning solution that enables mine engineers to optimise the physical mine geometry and long-term schedules of open pit deposits. Powered by the groundbreaking Maroma scheduler, Studio NPVS+ supports all tasks including data preparation, pit optimisation, pushback generation, cut-off grade optimisation, scheduling, haulage optimisation, and stockpile management. The innovative pushback generator and advanced scheduling capabilities ensure practical results which consider implications over the entire life of the mine. Built on Datamine Studio’s core platform, mine planners also benefit from onboard graphical visualisation and editing tools, enabling them to complete entire strategic planning studies within a single platform.
