Target for ArcGIS Pro enhances integration of mining and exploration data

Industry-first tool enables geoscientists to find what’s hidden faster with seamless integration of subsurface drilling and borehole data into ArcGIS Pro

Target for ArcGIS Pro was released yesterday 21/11/2019, to bring advanced understanding of mining and exploration data to the powerful next generation Esri ArcGIS Pro environment.

The industry-first, intuitive Esri-integrated solution simplifies the importing, viewing and analysis of drillhole and subsurface geological data within ArcGIS Pro to allow geoscientists, geologists and GIS analysts to make timely decisions on project viability and enable faster discoveries.
