Models

Source file: index.htm

Models are tables of information that are represented by three-dimensional objects in the viewer. The following are types of models that we use in Evolution:

• Block Models
  Block models are made up of repeatable "block" units that share the same properties and dimensions. Block models can be added to Origin Blocks setups and Strategy setups. Block models can be modified to maximise Net Present Value (NPV) using the Phase module. Learn more about block models.

  
  

• Reserve Models
  Reserve models are made up of triangulations called solids. While the solids share the same attributes, they do not share the same dimensions. Reserve models can be added to Origin Solids setups and Epoch setups. Learn more about reserve models.

  

• Dynamic Reserving Pits
  Dynamic reserving pits are a combination of a block model and a reserve model. They can be added to Epoch setups. Learn more about dynamic reserving pits.

  

• Road Networks
  Road networks are models which are used to calculate the journey taken by a unit of material from a source to a destination. They are imported as DGD.ISIS or CSV files. If imported as a DGD.ISIS file, road networks have live sharing capabilities between Evolution and Vulcan. Learn more about road networks.

  

• Trucks
  Trucks are models for vehicles which transfer material from one destination to another. They can be imported or newly created inside Evolution. Learn more about trucks.
