Configure the Blast Report

This activity is used to configure settings for the Blast report.

The Blast report calculates a blast volume from a set of known blast collar positions (or point data) and an expanded blast outline to a defined relative level. You can further constrain the resulting volume using either a pit surface or string data and/or a bottom surface (which is useful to blast to a known contact surface).

Activity Steps:

  1. Open the Settings screen.
  2. Select the Report Settings >> Blast tab.
  3. Change the template used for the Blast PDF report by expanding the Current Plot Template list and selecting a template.
  4. To add, edit or delete a plot template for this report, use the Manage Blast task.

  5. Choose the data to be generated as part of the report using Preview options:

    • Datamine Report - if selected, generate a Datamine table containing summary statistics for the report.

    • Solids - if selected, generate one or more 3D Datamine files representing the cut and fill volumes calculated by the report.

    • Plot - if selected, create a Plot window sheet using the Current Plot Template.

    • File Explorer - if selected, automatically open a folder browser containing the results of the report once data generation has completed.

  6. Click OK to update report settings.

    Subsequent report data is generated for all selected Preview options.
