Open Pit Mine Surveying Software
Import Field Data. Calculate Volumes. Reconcile Against Plan.
Turn field measurements into surfaces, volumes, and reconciliation reports. Import directly from Sokkia, Leica, Topcon, and Trimble instruments, then compute tacheometric surveys, theodolite traverses, and leveling with automatic accuracy checks. Build topographic surfaces, compare as-built to design, and track mining progress against plan.
Download Presentation Import From Field Instruments
Bring in measurements from Sokkia, Leica, Topcon, and Trimble, with custom templates for other formats.
Calculate Survey Networks
Process tacheometry, resection, theodolite traverses, and leveling with automatic discrepancy and accuracy assessment.
Reconcile Volumes by Period
Calculate cut and fill volumes between surfaces and break results down by bench, zone, and time period.
Deliver Audit-Ready Reports
Generate surveying journals and technical reports from templates and share outputs in standard formats.
Import Survey Data
Import measurement data directly from total stations and GNSS receivers. Supported formats include Sokkia SDR, Leica GSI and IDEX, Topcon GTS-7, Trimble DC, and Nikon DTM. Create custom import templates for other formats when needed.
Review imported points on the map, check coordinates and codes, and filter by point type or survey date before processing.
Build Surfaces and Compare to Design
Create surfaces from survey points using triangulation, then compare surfaces to calculate volumes and track changes over time. Overlay new surveys on baseline topography to spot discrepancies early.
Generate contours, slope maps, and elevation profiles, and use 3D views to check surface quality before results flow into reconciliation and planning updates.
Support Daily Survey Work
Update as-built surfaces, calculate period volumes, and deliver shift and monthly reconciliation outputs that match site routines.
Generate Sections
Generate cross-sections through surfaces and block models and build vertical profiles along any alignment. Combine topography, geology, design surfaces, and drillholes in one section view, then export sections for engineering review and reporting.
Calculate Volumes for Reconciliation
Calculate cut and fill volumes between triangulated surfaces to reconcile as-built against design. Produce bench-by-bench and zone-based breakdowns, then generate period reports for extracted, remaining, and moved material.
Track Mining Progress
Track excavation progress against the mine plan by updating operational surfaces as mining advances. Compare measured volumes to planned targets and identify deviations early. Export data packages for downstream operational reporting.
Integrate Surveying With Planning
Connect survey surfaces and reconciliation volumes to mine planning and scheduling workflows. Export surfaces and volumes for plan updates. Import block model data for grade-volume calculations, and link survey points to geological attributes when needed for tracking and reconciliation.
Export Data for Stakeout and CAD
Export survey data in standard formats such as DXF, CSV, and XML and generate coordinate lists for stakeout operations. Create LandXML files for road and surface design tools and export triangulated surfaces for CAD and GIS workflows.
Share Reports and Packages
Generate surveying journals and technical reports from templates and customize layouts for different stakeholders.
Create PDF packages for management review and export data bundles for audits and regulatory submissions.

Frequently Asked Questions
Mine surveying software processes field measurements into surfaces, sections, and volume calculations used for reconciliation and operational control. It supports traverses and leveling, exports stakeout data, and produces technical reports.
K-MINE supports direct import from Sokkia (*.sdr via RS-232), Leica, Topcon, and Trimble, plus custom format configuration for other instruments and file structures.
Supported methods include tacheometric survey, resection, theodolite traverse (closed loop, closed line, gyrocompassing), and leveling with automatic discrepancy and accuracy assessment.
You can calculate volumes by surface-to-surface comparison, closed contours, and block model-based methods, with filtering by zones, benches, and time periods for detailed reconciliation.
K-MINE works with local mine grids and standard coordinate systems. Survey points can be imported and exported in the coordinate format used on site, and transformations can be applied when integrating data from different sources.
