Deswik.IS (interactive scheduler) bridges the gap between designing and scheduling.

Deswik.IS produces a Gantt chart schedule that you can change and update via Deswik.CAD.

The planning engineer can make changes to the graphics, and the results update in the schedule. This facilitates rapid schedule development, with time to analyze scenarios, rather than manipulate data. The main features of Deswik.IS include:

Deswik.SO (Stope Optimizer) is a strategic mine planning tool that automates the design of stope shapes for a range of stoping methods for underground mines. The goal is to maximize the value of an orebody given the constraints using a certain mining method and design parameters. The outputs (stope wireframes, section strings and reports) are suitable for use in strategic and tactical planning <...>

This tutorial provides an introduction to the common tools and functions contained within Deswik.CAD in an Underground Hard Rock operation, however as this tutorial is an introduction to Deswik.CAD functionality, the learning’s can be applied generally.
This tutorial is designed to be used in conjunction with the training data folder 4.01 Intro to CAD for  Underground Hard Rock containing all of the training data, software files and a completed set of CAD exercises.

Azimuth and gradient search parameters allow the user to define the search direction of the spatial link. Azimuth search parameters can be used to link from undercut rings to first task in drawpoint drive using defined azimuth search direction, this will drive the direction of the SLC front. Gradient search parameters are similar, an example being stope linking in narrow vein steeply dipping stopes. <...>
