The end-to-end CAD solution for open pit mining operations
Save time while increasing accuracy with Deswik Spatial

We understand that open pit mine planning is complex. Our CAD solution offers everything your technical services department needs (from geological mapping to survey to design) to help your team create the optimal pit.

 

With its superior 3D solids modeling, full data control, and design and schedule integration, Deswik Spatial automates the manual work so you can focus your time where it matters most – making high value decisions.

Why choose Deswik Spatial?
Superior 3D solids modeling

Stop struggling with invalid solids. Remove the manual, labor-intensive tasks and get your job done quicker with the fastest solids Boolean and healing operations available in the CAD market.

Save time & reduce errors

One user-friendly CAD package for your tech service department. No more switching between software platforms—experience greater accuracy and efficiency with automated workflows, rapid plotting, fast survey scan cleanup, and attribute handling.

Full data control

Improve safety and communication between execution and technical services groups. Control risk with complete data control and electronic approvals when integrated with Deswik’s data management solution (Deswik.MDM).

Design & schedule integration

Visualize and watch the progress of your site’s LOM, and easily communicate the plan among departments. Get full visibility of your design solids and their associated scheduling tasks in real-time when integrated with Deswik’s scheduling solution.

 

Solids Modeling

Creating, repairing, and validating your design solids becomes easy with Deswik Spatial’s best-in-class solids modeling tools.

 

Using topographic and open pit surface data, you can effortlessly generate, cut, and crop solids for an accurate mine design. Deswik Spatial’s automatic repair capability ensures that any irregularities in externally imported solids can be fixed in seconds.

Auto Pit Design

Combine Deswik Spatial with our Strategic Pit Design (Deswik.SPD) tool to transform optimized pit shells into final pit designs.

 

Using a scenario-based approach, rapidly create a set of realistic pit designs with ramps and switchbacks based on the optimization shell, choose the most optimal design, and run against a block model to extract numeric outputs for profitable decision-making.

 

By integrating with Deswik’s scheduling solution, efficient resource planning becomes a simpler process.

 

Please note: The Auto Pit Design capability requires a Deswik.SPD license in addition to Deswik Spatial.

Road Design

Make your open pit access roads accessible with Spatial’s automated road design.

 

Draw a centerline of where the road leads, input parameters (width, slope, and gradient), and let Spatial do the rest. Update parameters as you need and re-run until your design is fit-for-purpose.

 

For even greater precision, generate cut and fill solids with polygon lines that show where material needs to be added or removed, and export to construction machine control systems for progressing cut and fill work.

Road Audit

Maximize your haul efficiency and safety with road audit capabilities.

 

Check your original design with the as-built road to see areas of compliance and non-compliance. Identify errors early with graphical views that show gradients, berms, and road widths.

Reconciliation

Measure your site’s compliance to plan with Spatial’s tools to reconcile planned and actual surfaces for mining and dumping.

 

Use color-coded reports to help you identify areas of non-compliance and numerical reports for detailed insights into performance metrics.

Point Cloud Surveying

Manage and manipulate the point cloud data gathered via site scans with ease.

 

From removing on-site equipment from scan data, to generating triangulated surfaces, Spatial’s point cloud tools will help you produce an accurate snapshot of your mine to create fit-for-purpose designs.

Geological Face Mapping

No more paper maps. Deswik’s tablet-based mapping tool lets you digitally map geological and structural open pit data in the field for instant team access and sharing via Deswik Spatial.

 

With its in-built GPS, you can know your exact location and surrounding data in the pit to map with unparalleled precision.

 

Simply pick up your tablet, open the application, and start mapping!

 

Please note: The Face Mapping capability requires a Deswik.Mapping license (does not require a Deswik Spatial license).
