Key Capabilities

A New Era for Subsurface Model Collaboration

underland.cloud is a resource intelligence platform designed to connect mining and exploration projects with the capabilities of cloud-based, high-performance computing.

High-Performance Visualisation

Explore intricate subsurface models directly in your web browser. Our AWS High-Performance Computing (HPC) backend ensures a fluid, interactive 3D experience, removing the dependency on specialised software or powerful local workstations.

Instant Collaboration

Securely share complex data and interactive 3D subsurface models with stakeholders instantaneously via a unique link.

Total Data Control

Maintain complete data sovereignty with secure hosting on AWS. Enterprise clients have the option of a fully self-hosted solution.

Broad Compatibility

underland.cloud integrates with your existing software workflows. Export your models with ease from leading packages such as Leapfrog, Deswik, Mira Geoscience, Maptek Vulcan, Micromine, GEOVIA, and, Datamine.

Global Reach, Low Latency

By leveraging AWS's global infrastructure, we serve your models from data centres located near your stakeholders, ensuring optimal load times worldwide.

API Access

Integrate underland.cloud into your workflows with API access for programmatic control, available on our Enterprise plan.

Dedicated Support

Our team is available to assist with integration, deployment, and scaling to meet your operational requirements.

View Your Subsurface Model in Three Simple Steps

Step 1: Export & Upload

Export your Open Mining Format (OMF) or GeoH5 file from your existing mining software and upload the 3D subsurface model through our secure web interface.

Step 2: Verify Ownership

Create a complimentary account to verify ownership of the model and configure access controls.

Step 3: Visualise & Share

Visualise your interactive 3D model and distribute it to stakeholders using a unique, secure URL.

Done!

Frequently Asked Questions

Here are some common questions about underland.cloud. If you cannot find the information you require, please contact our support team.

Data Security & Hosting

Where is my data stored?

We prioritise your data sovereignty. Your data is never stored on our own servers. All data is hosted on Amazon Web Services (AWS), the world’s leading cloud platform. This provides robust security, reliability, and allows your data to be stored in specific geographic regions to meet compliance needs.

Who has access to my subsurface models?

You maintain full control. Only users you explicitly grant access to can view or interact with your subsurface models via secure, time-limited links and role-based access controls.

Enterprise & Integration

Can we host our own data?

Yes. For organisations with strict data residency or internal governance requirements, our Enterprise plan offers a self-hosted option. You can deploy the underland.cloud visualisation platform within your own cloud environment, giving you complete control.

Do you provide an API?

Yes, our Enterprise plan includes API access. The API allows you to programmatically upload models, manage projects, and embed the underland.cloud 3D viewer directly into your company's internal applications, websites, or data platforms.

Processing & Performance

How long will it take for my subsurface model to be processed?

Thanks to our AWS High-Performance Computing (HPC) backend, most subsurface models are ready within a few minutes. However, processing time can occasionally take longer depending on the size and complexity of your data (up to 1TB) and current platform demand. We're constantly optimising our processing pipeline for speed.

Do you support any file formats besides OMF and GeoH5?

Yes! While OMF and GeoH5 are our primary format, we are actively developing support for others. We plan to add support for VTK, GOCAD, CSV, and OBJ files in the future. If you have a specific format need, please ask!
