The Western Australia Department of Mines, Industry Regulation and Safety (DMIRS) recently released TENGRAPH Web – its new online mining tenements and petroleum titles mapping system. It is utilised by more than 14,000 users and measured a success – with the majority of the test group proclaiming it much better than the former system.
TENGRAPH Web uses Geocortex technology and was configured with assistance from AAM’s Geosolutions team.
Executive Director Dr Ivor Roberts praised the new system claiming, “The new TENGRAPH Web does everything the old system could do, but also has a whole new set of features that make it a more modern, business-oriented system than TENGRAPH Online (DMIRS’ previous mapping system), which has been in operation since 1992. This new system has a strong focus on tenements and approvals and can also be used to create maps of a very high quality.”
