3DEXPERIENCE GEOVIA

GEOVIA on the 3DEXPERIENCE platform offers mining companies, engineers, geoscientists, and urban planners a comprehensive, real-time view of their work activity and ecosystem, and seamlessly connects individuals, ideas, data, and solutions within a single collaborative and interactive environment.

3DEXPERIENCE GEOVIA empowers you to assess a project’s value before breaking ground, enabling you to design and optimize it — well before construction begins. And it provides you with the tools you need to analyze and embed the sustainability of your operation, centralize and manage all your data, and work with colleagues from anywhere in the world. 

In 3DEXPERIENCE R2025x, GEOVIA enhanced the VIRTUAL PLANET roles, delivering solutions spanning Geosciences, Earth Engineering and the Urban Environment.

In Geosciences, subsurface geology modeling with the Geology Modeler role has focused on broadening the geological environment complexity that can be modeled. The accuracy of geology modeling is refined through localized faulting capabilities and additional control parameters from structural and contact point data. Many sedimentary style geology and mineral deposits can be precisely modeled enabled by advanced wash-out and pinch-out definition.

In Earth Engineering, mine design coverage has expanded with a new Underground Mine Designer role, aiding the practical and efficient design of underground development. Designers can save time through rapid updates when new data is available and increase optionality through the mine design process thanks to a parametric and data associativity approach.

For surface mines, strategic mine planners with the Pit Optimizer and

Strategic Mine Planner roles can evaluate multiple planning scenarios with ease, reducing time and effort to ensure the definition of the most appropriate mining plan. More comprehensive mining strategies can be targeted to incorporate sustainability variables and complex production variables through custom expressions. Seamlessly integrated with the Surface Mine Designer role, the planning and design process is transformed and elevated with new ramp design capabilities helping to maintain key safety, practicality, and financial requirements.

The Urban Environment solutions can now bring the scientific community and policy-makers closer together to tackle complex urban sustainability challenges through the experience of environmental simulation results in the context of the territorial virtual with the City Contributor role. The City Referential Manager role now enables seamless data navigation from large-scale to design-scale across all representations of a building model on the 3DEXPERIENCE platform. Construction-centric experiences can now utilize the IFC standard and navigate fully from geographic information to product lifecycle information.
