Abstract

Geoscientists in the mining industry work with a large variety of data, such as drillholes, seismic lines, geophysical surveys, geochemical analyses, all available in various formats. Integrating this data into a specific platform for comprehensive visualization and analysis poses significant challenges, requiring technical expertise and specialized tools. Additionally, ensuring seamless communication of data without loss of information necessitates the use of compatible tools, many of which are costly. Such applications may not support the addition of custom features. While numerous open-source libraries exist for data processing, they often operate independently, demanding programming skills and effort to integrate them into a user-friendly system.
