Mining is a complicated process. Your software shouldn’t be.
MicroStation for Mining. The Right Solution for the Right Industry.
Smart extraction of minerals from earth has a direct influence on the life of mine, the environment, and the future. For the unique requirements of the mining industry, you need the leading 2D and 3D CAD software for modeling, drawing production, and visualization capabilities with the ability to handle data for your projects of the largest scale and complexity.
You need MicroStation!
Underground Mining
In this webinar, we take an in-depth look at how MicroStation users are taking advantage of advanced features for generating their underground and open-cast plans. We will also show how the solution is used for historic data conversion, data clean-up, and 3D modeling, meeting the unique requirements of the mining industry.
Open-Cast Mining
In this session, we explore how MicroStation is enabling users in the mining industry to address issues such as highwall monitoring, dust monitoring, seepage, and asset inspections. This webinar will demonstrate how to use the data from these critical industry inspections to make preventative, corrective actions.

One Solution for the Entire Process
Safety Comes First, Monitor your Highwalls and Save Lives
Generate 3D highwall meshes from point clouds and capture annual surveys to identify any changes that might be a concern.
Working with Waste and Tailing Dams
Prevent excessive polluted water from seeping out of the dams by using thermal imaging and MicroStation to assess the changes in terrain temperatures across the dam.
Basic Checks on Aging Conveyor Belts and Infrastructure
Using MicroStation and point clouds, cross sections can be drawn up to assess height changes between pillars and if and ground subsidence or twisting in the conveyor belt has occurred.
Historic Scans Gathering Dust
Old scans needn’t be stuck in a cupboard gathering dust. Using MicroStation, you can gather all that information and convert it into valuable CAD data and share electronically.
Unorganized design files with redundant, duplicate, or inaccurate data are a headache best avoided
User MicroStation tools to get messy data quickly and efficiently to a standard that provides you with legible, useful data.
Extrusion to 3D
Enhance your 2D design files by extruding it to 3D.
