GEOWiZ Consulting has setup an online system called PlaceMap for storing geospatial information that can be queried and saved as a Google Earth kml file for displaying in Google Earth. Examples of the type of data that can be stored include drill hole collars, mining tenements, project locations, overlays from reports and so on. The data is stored in an online database that can be shared with other users who can then select the "places" that they want to download and view in Google Earth.

GEOWiZ Consulting spent 11 days at the Los Calatos Porphyry Copper Deposit in Southern Peru and developed a customised drill hole database and a Geotechnical logging database for hand held tablets to replace the existing Excel spreadsheet. The drilling database has been setup to import collar survey, downhole survey, sample and assay results directly from the laboratory file, quicklog and detailed geological logs, televiewer data and geotechnical logging. A working copy database or CSV files can then be exported after selecting the drill holes required.

GEOWiZ Consulting presented at the GEOVIA Users Conference in Perth on June 15th 2017. The presentation title is "Surpac & Google Earth - Why, What, How & When".

GEOWiZ Consulting now offers neural network analysis of exploration and mining data using using a unique software tool that provides geologists with the means to rapidly analyse and find anomalies and patterns from large quantities of survey data with minimal effort. The software utilises a combination of unsupervised and supervised neural methods to aid the detection and definition of mineralisation with the following analysis functions:

• Neural Anomaly Detection
• Neural Cluster Identification
• Neural Correlation Analysis
• Neural Fuzzy Search
• Neural Relationship Explorer

GEOWIZ have developed a Dynamic Anisotropy Estimation macro in SURPAC that has been used on a number of projects such as the Los Calatos Cu-Mo Porphyry project in Peru, see page 7 of Metminco ASX Announcement for details.

For the Los Calatos project, the orientation of the main breccia zones varied considerably in strike and dip. Normally, the breccias would have been sub-domained but the Dynamic Anisotropy Estimation (DAE) method allowed the orientation of the search ellipsoid and the variogram model to be defined individually for each block in the model.

A number of other macros are used to assign the dip and dip azimuth values into the block model.

The DAE method was developed by Collaroy Computing in the Surpac macro scripting language and uses the enhanced Ordinary Kriging functions within Surpac 6.7 to interpolate the blocks.

Google Earth is a free software program that lets you fly anywhere on Earth to view satellite imagery, maps, terrain and 3D buildings. When used in conjunction with SURPAC, it becomes a very powerful 3D GIS tool that can be used for storing, displaying and printing all of your exploration and mining data.

Any data created in SURPAC can be exported to Google Earth including string point data, string line data and string polygon data, all DTM’s and 3DM models as well as saved screen images. Any other images taken from PDF’s for example can be imported to SURPAC and geo-referenced and then exported to Google Earth. More complicated 3D models created in programs such as Sketchup can also be imported to SURPAC for geo-referencing and then exported to Google Earth.

High quality images can be saved from Google Earth and imported into SURPAC for geo-referencing. Google Earth also provides some useful digitising tools and any digitised data can be exported directly to SURPAC strings.

GEOWiZ is offering the system free of charge. For more details and examples, download a slide show. The system comes with detailed tutorials and demo data.

GEOWiZ have developed a sophisticated field logging system for a company that has just completed a relogging 125,000m of diamond drill core at a remote location in Peru.
