Studio NPVS 3.1 delivers important optimization workflow improvements, including more accurate slope modelling, a faster pushback algorithm that produces more practical outputs with narrower bottoms, and nested pit shell graphs that use factors instead of pit numbers.
Visualized models now include economic parameter data fields, while economic models using mining cost per volume and MAO models in Multimine projects are now exported correctly. The documentation has also been completely overhauled.
On the core systems side, you can now Create Multiple Sections, either parallel or string-based directly in the 3D window using simple controls for orientation, spacing and reference points. Another standout improvement is the increased performance of key file-based processes.
The update also introduces wireframe and command enhancements, including new tools to extend strings to wireframes, insert vertices at wireframe intersections, save selected wireframes, and quickly hide selected or non-selected wireframe data. There are also improvements to triangulation, multi-file loading, Leapfrog and Geosoft import support, faster file handling, simpler selection settings and a new Edit Legend Wizard to help streamline everyday work.
This is a significant update for our Studio NPVS customers, and a sign of our ongoing commitment to our strategic open pit planning product portfolio.
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. 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.
