Stage Plans and data export

Schedule and spatial data can be exported and published from the XECUTE Client application. Exported data is saved to the local file system while published data is sent to RPM Enterprise Planning Framework (EPF).

Export of data to local file includes:
- Stage plans and 3D Scene image from the 3D Scene radial menu and Activity area files from the Activity Areas tab tool bar.
- Reports generated from the Reporting tab > Export menu.
- Detailed schedule csv file and Debug info from Gantt tab grid, Ctrl+Right click.
- Export Gantt as image and export HAULSIM model from Gantt tab grid, Right click
Export (publish) to a data feed out for schedule results, storage locations and activity areas data using the 3D Scene radial menu or right-click in the Gantt Grid > Publish.

In order to make data available to other enterprise systems set the Reportable option to Yes in the Dataset Definition used in the Data Feed Out . A reportable dataset definition will write data to the RPM OmiReport database and can be used to expose XECUTE data as an SQL view. Views can then be used as data sources from other reporting tools such as Microsoft PowerBI. Contact the RPM consulting team for assistance with data integration.

The image below shows the Reportable configuration setting in Integration Management Studio (IMS) for a Dataset Definition that is used in a Data Feed Out in XECUTE Config.

Export Stage Plans

Stage plans represent the as-built surface of the mine plan at a point in time. Stage plans can be exported as a surface or as a grid.

To export a stage plan, run the schedule to the desired point in time, open the 3D Scene radial menu and click the Export Stage Plan icon.

The exported file is named [Site Name] stage plan [date-time], for example KSGM stage plan s2019-08-06 0600.dxf.

The image below shows a defined region to export a surface type staged plan. The green preview box on the left is adjusted as the origin and extents values are adjusted. The default setting is to export all extents.

If the Grid option is chosen an additional panel appears to set the grid specification and the grid is rendered in the preview with a red cross to mark the origin.

Fields on the Stage Plan dialog

General	Stage Plan Date	The schedule date-time at which the stage plan is generated.
	Dumps	Option to include the upper surface of imported dump solids in the export.
	Export Region	All topography extents (default) or a user Defined Region.
	Origin	Enabled if the Defined Region option is selected. The south-west corner of the export region.
	Extents	Enabled if the Defined Region option is selected. The distance along the surface axes from origin to north-east corner.
	Rotation	Enabled if the Defined Region option is selected. Rotation of the region to export. Rotation is clockwise degrees relative from the +ve Y axis around the Z axis.
	Export Type	Tri-surface (Surface) or grid.
	Filling Holes	Will attempt to triangulate any stage plan inner holes.
Grid Settings	Origin	The south-west corner of the export grid (cell edge).
	Cell Size	The grid cell size.
	Cell Count	The grid cell count.
	Rotation	Rotation of the grid cells. Rotation is clockwise degrees relative from the +ve Y axis around the Z axis.
	Extents	The distance along the grid axes (cell edges).
	First Cell Centroid	The centroid of the south-west grid cell.
	Last Cell Centroid	The centroid of the north-east grid cell.
	Reset Grid	Reset the grid to the values in the General section.
	Best Rotated Fit	The grid is sized to best fit the rotated axis
