Micromine Geobank Databases

Micromine Geobank manages data through a set of configured tools. The data resides in a SQL database. This database is known as the data model. It has some built-in components, for common data, and some variable components, for data specific to a commodity or a customised use. It is through this combination of static and customised structures in the data model that Micromine Geobank achieves the flexibility it provides. This data is the content with which Micromine Geobank interacts, and it is stored in one or more Content databases.

The tool-set used to manage the data is referred to as the configuration of the Micromine Geobank system. As with the data model, this tool-set comprises a combination of built-in and custom-built tools. The information defined by the tool-set is stored in a Configuration database.

In summary, there are two sets of data:

Configuration data	Data about the tools set-up in the Micromine Geobank system.
Content data	The Geological data (typically) managed by the Micromine Geobank system.

Base models

Members of a Micromine Australia Pty Ltd Annual Licensing Programme (ALP) are given access to a variety of base models. These vary, from generic training models, to models for mineral-focussed data, or models for specific commodities such as Coal and the regional processes used with those commodities.

Base models can be downloaded for restoring as databases on a SQL server. Click here to Login to the Customer Portal and contact Support to request a copy of a base model database.

Note: If you are not subscribed to an Annual Licensing Programme, but have a version-locked perpetual licence, Micromine Geobank versions 9 or 10 legacy data models may be deployed. Go to https://www.micromine.com/downloads-geobank/.
