Data Source Drivers make the connection between the Datamine programs and your other sources of data:
- Specific sources include drivers for CAD, GIS, orebody modelling and mine planning software;
- Generic sources include drivers for SQL database tables, spreadsheets and text files;
- Data types include point, line, wireframe, dtm, drillhole, polygon, string, block model and table;
- Import and export drivers available for most data types;
- Same drivers used by all applications.
