SPT SmartCloud™Interoperable Cloud Platform for Borehole Survey Data Management
It ensures full data custody, enables cross-data correlation, and streamlines real-time QA/QC for complete traceability throughout the mineral exploration process.
Lack of Immediate Access to Structural Data Hinders Informed Geotechnical Decisions.
Drilling data is often exported as editable files and stored on on local drives, emails, or USB drives. This breaks the chain of custody, allows uncontrolled changes, and complicates traceability.
It also slows down workflows and creates disorder in data management.
A Misassigned File Can Compromise Data Custody and QA/QC Validation.
When data is not centralized or secured, control is lost. Analysis becomes harder, tasks are duplicated, and decisions are made based on information that may be incomplete or altered.
Teams operate in isolation, and every delay costs time and accuracy.
SmartCloud™: Data Management and Real-Time Sync
SmartCloud™ centralizes, encrypts, and automatically syncs all data recorded by SPT tools. Every action is logged, every data point secured.
Delivers full traceability, real-time QA/QC validation, and instant collaboration across teams.
Access it from anywhere, export what you need, and manage your operation with total confidence and control.

SmartCloud™
Integrate trajectory data
from multiple sources
SmartCloud™ expands data workflow interoperability by allowing compatible downhole survey data from third-party instruments or platforms to be imported via CSV.

External Trajectory Survey
External trajectories can be viewed in the 3D borehole plot and used within compatible SmartCloud™ workflows, making them easier to review, analyze, and include in reports. The platform identifies them as External Trajectory Survey, clearly distinguishing their source from data transferred directly from SPT instruments.

SmartCloud™
A single digital environment
This integration brings data from multiple sources together in a single digital environment. For external data, interoperability does not provide a verified end-to-end chain of custody, since SmartCloud™ cannot verify its original source or the processes applied before import.
Greater interoperability, with data provenance clearly visible.
Comprehensive Geotechnical Data Management
SmartCloud™ is SPT’s cloud platform to centralize, secure, and maximize the value of geotechnical and structural data in exploration and mining environments.
Designed to integrate seamlessly with the full range of SPT tools, it enables precise management of rig alignment, borehole survey, core orientation, and structural logging—all under a fully auditable digital chain of custody.
Real-Time Synchronization
Every data point is automatically synced and made available in real time anywhere in the world. QA/QC validation systems, configurable by project or borehole, ensure technical consistency and immediate quality control.
SmartCloud™ enables data quarantine for out-of-spec records, audits every user interaction, allows report sharing with temporary access control, and manages granular permissions by role or location.
API-Based Interoperability with Full Chain of Custody
To further strengthen data governance and controlled interoperability, a new Open API has been introduced.
The API enables authorized external systems to retrieve structured directional survey and trajectory data on demand through a secure REST interface with OAuth 2.0 authentication.
The integration is unidirectional and designed to preserve existing QA/QC validation workflows, audit traceability, user permissions, and full chain of custody controls.
This capability removes the need for manual data exports and reprocessing, reduces operational risk, and ensures that validated drilling data remains consistent, auditable, and securely integrated across technical and operational environments.
Online Collaboration
Optimize collaboration between geologists, engineers, and operators with integrated visualization combining data, high-resolution images of oriented cores, and 2D/3D stereonet plots for real-time structural verification, eliminating the need to return to the core shack.
SmartCloud™ is aligned with ISO/IEC 27001:2023 architecture and supports data export in multiple formats. SmartCloud™ reduces downtime and enables quick and confident technical decisions, whether you’re at the drill site or in the office.
