What's New for Supervisor V8.15.1

In addition to Supervisor's existing suite of univariate and multivariate data analysis tools, the new release introduces several enhancements that will help you rapidly understand the characteristics of their orebody with the highest level of confidence.

Supervisor 8.15.1 includes several quality-of-life improvements, such as the ability to copy-paste components between projects, a simplified visual representation for the Contact Analysis Comparison Table, and the ability to draw confidence limits on Scatter Plots. Loaded points files can now be used as the node definition for point simulation, and Conditional Simulation Block Models can be exported directly to .dm format, saving you valuable time. This list is just a small sample of the many improvements that have been introduced in version 8.15.1.

With Supervisor's flexible import and export features, you can enjoy the benefits of a comprehensive, easy-to-use geostatistical package, regardless of your preference of general mining software. We are confident that these new features and enhancements will further improve productivity and provide a better user experience for our customers.

Copying components between projects and Stand-alone Variogram enhancements

  • Copying components between projects saves valuable time by reusing existing components instead of recreating them from scratch.
  • Stand-Alone Variograms now support a wider range of features, acting as an omnidirectional variogram for analysis. They can also be exported for use in other software. See Insert a Standalone Variogram.
  • Both of these features enable you to work more effectively, resulting in increased productivity and a better user experience.

New Segment modelling

  • The new Segment Models component offers a more intuitive and user-friendly interface, with better interactivity that allows users to easily modify and adjust their segment models. See Configure Tail Models.
  • Gain a better understanding of the tails of the data, making it easier to identify and account for outliers and anomalies during resource estimation.
  • In-plot editing of thresholds, gives users more control and flexibility over segment boundaries.
