Services for Mining and Mineral Exploration
LunaGeo helps mining and mineral exploration teams manage spatial data, field observations, exploration targets, imagery, claims, drill data, and project maps using QGIS, PostGIS, GeoServer, LunaMap, and managed open source GIS infrastructure.
Mining and mineral exploration projects generate large amounts of spatial data across claims, drill holes, samples, geology, geophysics, imagery, LiDAR, access routes, and field observations.
Common challenges include:
- Project data scattered across folders, shapefiles, spreadsheets, CAD files, and legacy projects
- Inconsistent project structures between exploration areas
- Difficulty sharing current maps with field crews, managers, investors, or partners
- Large raster and imagery datasets that are hard to organize and publish
- Limited internal capacity to manage shared GIS infrastructure
- Field data disconnected from central project data
LunaGeo helps exploration teams organize spatial data, improve workflows, and publish maps through open source GIS infrastructure.
We provide practical open source GIS services for exploration, mining, and geoscience teams.
Our work can include:
- Custom PostGIS database design
- QGIS project setup and workflow support
- Exploration data cleanup and migration
- Claims, drill hole, sample, and field data management
- Raster, LiDAR, imagery, geology, and geophysics organization
- Internal web maps with LunaMap
- GeoServer publishing
- Managed hosting through LunaCORE
- Staff training and ongoing support
Practical ways we can help
Practical GIS services for exploration teams.
Custom Exploration Database Design
Design a PostGIS database for claims, project areas, drill holes, samples, geology layers, geophysical grids, access routes, constraints, field observations, and reporting areas.
Exploration Data Cleanup
Clean, organize, and standardize shapefiles, spreadsheets, CAD exports, GPS data, rasters, and QGIS projects so teams can work from a more reliable spatial data environment.
Web Maps for Project Teams
Build internal LunaMap viewers for claims, targets, access routes, field observations, imagery, and project layers so staff and stakeholders can view current maps without opening desktop GIS.
Managed GIS Infrastructure
Provide hosted PostGIS, GeoServer, and LunaMap through LunaCORE for teams that need shared project data, map publishing, backups, and managed server support.
Field Data Collection Workflows
Set up QGIS and mobile workflows for sampling locations, field observations, photos, access notes, prospecting data, and project updates.
QGIS, PostGIS, and GeoServer Support
Provide support blocks for troubleshooting, workflow improvements, map publishing, raster processing, database updates, and staff questions.
