What is MineSight?
MineSight is a suite of mining tuned computer
programs
Heart is a 3D CAD graphics program called
MineSight
Has a wide array of mining calculations programs that
link production planning to the graphics functions in the
3D CAD program
Activities Planner
Data Analyst
Interactive Planner
Strategic Planner
Other procedures constantly being prepared
Editorial Commentary
Lack of Consistency
Has bugs in it
Most bugs are triggered by assuming people will input in a certain way
and you dont
Mining has lots of local terms in it so wording can encourage you to
do unexpected things
Most bugs are operator error triggered but it is rather unforgiving
Very computer and graphically intensive
Pushes hardware and designs to the limit and a lot of hardware and
system components misbehave when they are at their limit
I Can Browse
Types of Files
Main file is called a Geometry Object
It is information describing some geometric
shape that can be brought up on the
viewer
I typed experiments
I will then click Ok
The X Box
You right click to finish a function which gets you out of it (but might also
finish a goof)
Some drawing functions will not let you move on until you save you last
group of edits
It is not consistent in when this happens but if the program stops taking
orders a right click to finish what ever it thinks your doing and then a save is
a good guess.
You can save the last set of edits and then go back and undo it.
It does not keep a step by step undo list that lets you go back and undo
the last 20 things one at a time
Undo function often requires you to save before it becomes available
If you really goof it keeps back-up copies of everything and you can go
in and fetch a back up copy of what you screwed up.
