Abstract: Described herein is a computer processing system configured to: display a profile depiction of a work site terrain feature being designed, the profile depiction comprising a design plane line depicting a desired surface profile of the terrain feature; receive input from a pointing device, the input adjusting the elevation of a point on the design plane line; based on receiving input adjusting the elevation of the point on the design plane line, recalculate coordinates of the design plane line in accordance with the input received from the pointing device; and redisplay the design plane line in accordance with the recalculated coordinates.

Abstract: Described herein is a computer-implemented method for illustrating work status for an area of interest of a mine worksite. The method comprises determining a dataset comprising recorded data representing an elevation map of a surface of the mine worksite for at least the area of interest. The elevation map is based on measured data for the surface. The data set also comprises reference data representing a reference elevation topography for at least the area of interest. The method further comprises generating model data, based on the determined dataset, defining a 3-dimensional model for illustrating, in an image portraying a 3-dimensional view of the model, divergence between the elevation map and the reference elevation topography.

Abstract: A method for sharing spatial data between a first geographic information system and a second geographic information system is provided. The method includes receiving a description of a first set of layers of spatial data, available on the first geographic information system, by the second geographic information system. The method includes defining a user interface on the second geographic information system. The method includes selecting layers through the user interface based on a user input. The selected layers includes at least a subset of at least one of the first set of layers of spatial data or the second set of layers of spatial data. The method includes receiving the subset of the first set of layers of spatial data from the first geographic information system, based on the selection. The method includes displaying an overlay of the selected layers on the second geographic information system.
