FASTER DECISIONS LEAD TO MORE EFFICIENT RESOURCE RECOVERY & GREATER PRODUCTIVITY
Maptek PerfectDig is a rapid design compliance system, supporting real-time decision making in the field.

Maptek PerfectDig provides all stakeholders with detailed information to track conformance of excavations to designs to optimise digging, update mine designs and allow for efficient short and long term mine planning.
Access to accurate, clear and timely information while digging is taking place supports real-time decision making. Significant operational savings come from efficient use of excavation equipment. Checking the progress of excavation while it is happening means less rehandle or overdig. The designed wall stability and floor characteristics are more easily maintained. PerfectDig has an intuitive interface. Users can acquire scans at the given location and perspective to compare with designs. PerfectDig delivers feedback at the stages in mining where it can have a positive impact. No need to wait for surveys to be completed and reports to be prepared before feedback can be made available to production crews. Users can specify and dynamically adjust tolerances to more accurately track conformance to design. A digital history is automatically captured allowing stakeholders to look back and see why errors may have occurred.

CLEAR COMMUNICATION PerfectDig creates a robust feedback loop around one of the critical production processes in a mine. Accurate, reliable measurements come directly from a Maptek I-Site 8000 series laser scanner which is operated via a simple interface. Automated scan registration and image correction streamline the generation of results, displayed as images while excavation is taking place. PerfectDig provides fast easy access to accurate spatial information, whether you are in the pit or in the office. Results can be viewed in the pit on smart phones and tablets and shared immediately across secure networks to stakeholders. Intuitive colouring, labelling and display facilitate clear understanding of how the excavation is conforming to designs and where adjustments need to be made. IMPROVED SAFETY PerfectDig improves site safety. Because survey staff are not required to access faces and peg out, the potential for interaction with operating machinery is minimised. Scans can be conducted without stopping machinery. Transient objects such as vehicles are easily removed from scans. An unobstructed view of excavation progress can be easily compared to designs.

The PerfectDig section view tools help ensure that batter angles match pit designs. A more consistent outcome helps ensure wall stability. CONNECTIVITY PerfectDig brings mining into the modern era. Smart phones and tablets in the field provide augmented reality imagery. All stakeholders can view the same information at the same time. Communication between departments is streamlined. No additional software or training is needed to analyse the information. Views can be customised. Users can load cross section, overdig, underdig, design tolerance threshold and other overlays depending on their requirements. This allows them to apply their professional expertise to assess excavation progress and make the right decisions.

PERFECTDIG WORKFLOW = INCREASED PRODUCTIVITY PerfectDig increases operational productivity by making critical data available in real time to ensure excavation is conforming to design during the excavation phase. Photo-realistic display and simple tools enhance understanding of the scene. Automated tools and an intuitive interface combine to deliver streamlined workflow. Survey the scene while excavation in progress - select a design to check against and press a button to scan. Compare scans to designs - overlays show overdig and underdig with threshold set to operational/site tolerances. Tools to better understand data - protractor overlay on cross-sections to determine average batter angles; check depth to surfaces; display coordinates for distances from scan. Reporting - One click to publish imagery and scene grids for distribution to PerfectDig Online for sharing with stakeholders.
