GEOVIA Solutions with VIAS3D
Model the Sustainable Planet with GEOVIA
End-to-end geology, mine planning, and urban/environmental modeling — powered by the 3DEXPERIENCE platform and implemented by VIAS3D.
- Turn geology and geoscience data into accurate 3D models and mine plans
- Design, schedule, and optimize open-pit and underground operations
- Create virtual twins of mines, infrastructure, and urban environments
- Embed ESG, safety, and sustainability into every decision
What is GEOVIA?
GEOVIA is Dassault Systèmes’ portfolio for mine planning, geology modeling, geospatial intelligence, and urban/environmental design. Powered by the 3DEXPERIENCE platform, GEOVIA connects geoscientists, mining engineers, and urban planners in a single collaborative environment so they can design, analyze, and simulate the earth’s resources and built environment — with data-driven efficiency and sustainability.
- With GEOVIA, you can:
- Measure and model geological and geospatial data with high accuracy
- Design and optimize mines and infrastructure before breaking ground
- Plan and schedule short-, medium-, and long-term mining operations
- Monitor ESG metrics and support responsible resource extraction
GEOVIA solutions we support
1. Mine Planning & Design
Transform geological data into actionable, value-optimized mine plans. GEOVIA Mine Planning & Design unifies geology, engineering, scheduling, and sustainability in one environment so teams can maximize NPV, reduce risk, and deliver safe, executable mine designs.
Use cases:
- Strategic and tactical mine planning (open pit and underground)
- Parametric design and automated updates when data changes
- Life-of-mine scenarios and economic optimization
2. Geology
GEOVIA Geology solutions connect the physical world to the virtual world, helping you measure, model, and manage subsurface resources and natural hazards. Integrated workflows improve data quality and generate consistent 3D geology models for more reliable resource estimation.
Use cases:
- 3D geology modeling and ore body / seam modeling
- Geostatistical analysis and resource estimation
- Scenario analysis to test hypotheses before drilling or extraction
3. Mine Scheduling & Optimization
GEOVIA Mine Scheduling & Optimization (including GEOVIA MineSched and tactical planning roles) helps you create short- and medium-term schedules that balance daily production needs with long-term objectives. Engineers can compare thousands of scheduling scenarios to find the plan that maximizes productivity and profitability.
Use cases:
- Target-based scheduling for open pit and underground mines
- Haulage, stockpile, and equipment scheduling
- Scenario comparison for alternate strategies and economic conditions
4. Geospatial Intelligence & Geospatial Modeling
GEOVIA Geospatial Intelligence and Geospatial Modeling allow you to process and analyze geospatial data in context, create virtual twins of mine sites, infrastructure, and cities, and collaborate across disciplines for more resilient designs.
Use cases:
- Integrating GIS, remote sensing, and engineering data
- Urban and infrastructure planning
- Environmental, rehabilitation, and closure planning
GEOVIA on the 3DEXPERIENCE platform
GEOVIA on the 3DEXPERIENCE platform provides a real-time, collaborative environment where teams can connect ideas, data, and models across the full value chain.
With 3DEXPERIENCE GEOVIA, you can:
- Create virtual twins of the earth’s surface, subsurface, and infrastructure to test “what-if” scenarios before committing in the field
- Centralize and govern data for geology, engineering, production, and ESG metrics
- Work from anywhere, with role-based applications tailored to geologists, mine planners, engineers, and planners
- Add other Dassault Systèmes brands (CATIA, SIMULIA, DELMIA, ENOVIA) to create a connected digital thread from exploration to production and closure
