Geoscience ANALYST
Leading geophysical software

Geoscience ANALYST is a free 3D visualization and communication software. It allows the display of integrated, multi-disciplinary earth models and data. Geoscience ANALYST Pro provides low cost functionalities for interpretation, targeting, and geophysics.

“This software is great. It accomplishes all the aspects I need to be able to spend more time evaluating and thinking about exploration project data, not fussing over complex software. I have advised a number of exploration colleagues to get going on this software; it continues to be fantastic.”

As a unique standalone application allowing users to import, visualize, annotate, save, and distribute a multitude of 3D geoscientific data types and models, Geoscience ANALYST is the ideal companion to a wide variety of 3D exploration and modelling packages. It has an intuitive and modern user interface that is geared toward rapid understanding of complex data. Geoscience ANALYST is set to quickly become your primary means of communicating and disseminating earth models and business decisions based on them.

With Geoscience ANALYST it’s possible to import and share numerous data and model objects including GOCAD Mining Suite objects, and VP Suite models and data. It is also the 3D front end and 3D data set search tool for the Geoscience INTEGRATOR data management system. Its Python API, geoh5py library, allows users to leverage the powerful visualization capabilities of Geoscience ANALYST along with open-source code from the Python ecosystem.
In Geoscience ANALYST Pro is offered a low-cost, easy-to-use interface for object and data editing and creation functionality. ioGAS Link, Drillhole Designer, Maxwell Link, and other functionalities such as geophysical forward modelling, survey design, and unconstrained potential fields inversion are included.

Geoscience ANALYST Pro Geophysics allows advanced geophysical interpretation using VP Suite and the codes developed by the UBC Geophysical Inversion Facility (GIF). It includes unlimited access to VPmg and VPem1D.

Geoscience ANALYST Pro

Object and data editing and creation functionality is offered under Geoscience ANALYST Pro. It has effective data analysis, interpretation tools, and utilities. It includes ioGAS Link, Drillhole Designer, Maxwell Link, as well as other functionality for interpretation and targeting. Pro also allows users to perform unlimited forward modelling and unconstrained inversion of potential fields data at no extra cost. “How to” videos are available on Mira Geoscience’s YouTube channel.

Geoscience ANALYST Pro is sold on a 1-year subscription basis. The subscription fee includes a licence for a single installation, technical support, and available updates. In case you need more than 4 single installations, corporate, academic, and non-profit licensing is more advantageous.

  • All basic objects (points, curves and surfaces) can be created and edited
  • 2D and 3D grid objects can be created
  • Drillhole designer to create new drillholes from a collar location with defined lengths, lift, and swing along the path
  • Desurvey drillholes to create points
  • Surface designer to create surfaces with geometric constraints
  • Minimum curvature gridding
  • Fourier filtering of 2D grid properties
  • Data trend removal for 2D grid and point objects
  • Potential fields forward modelling and unconstrained inversion
  • Survey designer
  • Coordinate system transformations
  • Compute and visualize distance to drillholes

Dynamically links to ioGAS. Once linked, any point object in Geoscience ANALYST Pro can be opened in ioGAS and, conversely, an opened ioGAS file will be automatically imported into Geoscience ANALYST Pro. ioGAS’s powerful attribute settings and are dynamically updated in 3D using Geoscience ANALYST Pro’s versatile viewing capabilities.

Features

  • Live connection to ioGAS
  • Points with ioGAS attributes visualization
  • Real-time attribute updates
  • Real-time ioGAS data addition updates

  • Ability to save linked ioGAS data after disconnecting
  • Provides access to ioGAS’s stereonet, gridding, graphs, maps, utilities, and statistic tools

Dynamic, user-friendly environment that allows you to quickly design new drillholes such as simple straight holes from a collar location with defined lengths to complex drillholes with lift and swing along the path.

Features

  • Design new drillholes from target (x,y,z location) to surface, collar down, or existing drillholes
  • Casing length, azimuth, dip, lift, swing, and station interval parameters
  • Manual drillhole designer utility
  • Change collar location
