from the point of collection , through the lifecycle , acQuire claims .
“ Companies can get up and running faster with their geological data management , with limited scoping requirements , fast deployment and minimal ownership overheads required with GIM Essentials ,” Atkins added .
While the development of GIM Essentials is facilitating straight forward and simple data management for its clients , acQuire is also continuing to evolve GIM Suite .
Last year , the company released GIM Suite REST API to enable other technology organisations to connect with the solution and provide more flexibility to customers with how they want to access the data within the solution as well .
“ Connectivity has always been a core focus at acQuire and , over many years , we have fostered long-standing technology partnerships for GIM Suite ,” Atkins said . “ This ensures the transfer of geoscientific data is seamless , and safeguards data integrity and business rules , between GIM Suite and third-party software used by our customers .”
Outside of the REST API , upgrades to GIM Suite that occurred in 2024 focused on extending capabilities further into the web and mobile environment , with enhancements in drill hole logging , workspace management and more . acQuire ’ s environmental data management
solution , EnviroSys , received enhancements to enable users to monitor , assess and report on environmental compliance more efficiently , with
improvements made across sample management , data loading and data feeds and field data collection .
Insite , acQuire ’ s social performance data management solution , also received regular upgrades to continually enhance the user experience when managing social compliance information , the company says .
Integrated modelling , planning and simulation
ThreeDify ’ s GeoMine platform benefitted from new updates in 2024 , all of which were designed to generate actionable insights from massive datasets .
ThreeDify GeoMine is a fully integrated , all-inone platform to process these datasets with speed and accuracy . It offers tools for geological modeling , mine optimisation , design and scheduling , haulage simulation and predictive
analytics , according to the company , empowering users to make data-driven decisions to boost operational efficiency .
The GeoMine platform comprises 20 integrated yet independently licensed modules , ensuring that , for instance , geological modelling , mine planning and simulation are linked to enable users to evaluate geological
uncertainties , environmental , social and governance goals or greenhouse gas emission reduction variables .
The company told IM : “ GeoMine ’ s integrated approach to technical and economic modelling transforms mining decision making . The platform facilitates scenario analysis and optimisation by integrating geospatial , operational and economic factors . It allows users to evaluate system-level trade-offs between mining efficiency , energy consumption , emissions and financial performance , accelerating the adoption of sustainable mining strategies .”
In terms of decarbonisation initiatives , the company recently started looking at customer feedback around the need for customised configuration files to meet unique mining operation requirements in this area .
GeoMine-DigiSIM addresses this challenge with integrated resource modelling , mine planning and simulation tools that require minimal or no customisation , the company says . Designed to adapt to mines of any type , size , or location , GeoMine-DigiSIM seamlessly interfaces with GeoMine ' s geological modelling and mine planning modules , with changes in mine design automatically propagated to the simulation module . This also allows the results to directly inform the planning system for iterative improvements .
“ This systematic approach accelerates the
