Real-Time Sensor Data Meets Mine Planning: Inside the GEOVIA and MineSense Integration

Filmed at SME MINEXCHANGE 2026 in Salt Lake City, this episode of Mining Now gathers three experts to break down a practical advancement in ore control: streaming MineSense ShovelSense data directly into GEOVIA Surpac.

For geologists managing the gap between the block model and reality, this conversation gets specific.

Ralph SMITH (Global Sales Director, Dassault Systèmes GEOVIA), Tim NORRIS (Dassault Systèmes GEOVIA Services Software Specialist) and Hannah LANG (Digital Solutions Manager, MineSense Technologies) walk through a working geologist's view of real-time ore control.

Key Highlights:

• How high-resolution sensor data exposes blast movement
• Why bucket-level grade prediction reduces the smallest mineable unit
• How an automated pipeline removes the manual data handling that used to eat up a full day
• A look ahead to processing data, BeltSense and AI companions that support faster decisions across the value chain
