Kimmer Viewer
A universal 3D scene for mining data. Drill holes, block models, meshes, point clouds, and satellite imagery, composited correctly, in the same projection, in one window.
One scene. Every dataset.
Most viewers are good at one thing, drill holes or block models or point clouds. Kimmer Viewer is the one your planning meeting actually opens, because everyone's data shows up correctly aligned.
Drill holes
Acquire (Datamine), CSV, and survey-collar formats. Downhole trace, lithology painting, assay channels, all live-filterable.
Block models
Datamine PROTO, Vulcan BMF, GSLIB. Sub-block support, slice planes, color ramps with explicit min/max controls.
Triangulated surfaces
OBJ, DXF, Vulcan 00t, Datamine TR. Wireframe, solid, or transparent overlays. Inter-surface intersection on demand.
Point clouds
LAS / LAZ streamed at billions of points via Potree-style chunking. RGB, intensity, classification, or scalar coloring.
Satellite imagery
Native GeoTIFF + tiled basemap support. Drape on terrain or use as a flat overlay; pulls directly from Kimmer Satellite outputs.
Scene snapshots
Save the camera, layer state, and filters as a single shareable .kvscene file. Reproducible figures for reports and audits.
Engineered for billion-point scenes
Out-of-core rendering, GPU-side culling, and per-layer LODs mean planning sessions stay interactive on a workstation that's also running CAD.
- Multi-threaded ingest with disk-cached LODs
- GPU instancing for drill-hole channels
- Vulkan / Metal / DirectX 12 backends, auto-selected
- Headless render mode for batch figure generation
Reads the formats you already have
The viewer was written by people who've been on the receiving end of "we exported it for you", every importer is round-trip tested against real client deliverables.
- Datamine, Vulcan, Surpac, Leapfrog, Micromine
- OBJ, DXF, STEP, GeoTIFF, LAS / LAZ, GLTF
- Direct Acquire database connection (no export)
- Scriptable via Python plugin SDK
