Mines Digital Services

The technologies that support mine oversight for British Columbians need to be reimagined. This project will replace the legacy Mine Management System (MMS) with a scalable, open source, data driven system using modern and flexible technologies.

The Mines Digital Services (MDS) will have a number of interconnections and relationships to systems across the Natural Resource Ministries and will be important not only to the Ministry of Energy, Mines and Low Carbon Innovation but also to inter-agency collaborations across ministries. The future state must be intuitive, and capable of providing meaningful data to relevant stakeholders.

Features

The product is anticipated to include:

1. Support for integrated analysis and decision making across the process of mine oversight
2. Support for the creation of a complex data model that can connect various components of mines. Some examples include consultation information, risk management modeling, spatial data, financial tracking and collecting and physical attributes
3. Enhancements to the public-facing BC Mine Information website (github repository) to broaden the available data and create new or improved functionality to increase usability
4. Enhancements to the BC Mine Information website's administrative console (github repository) , including work required to connect with other systems (e.g., the Natural Resource Inspection System, aka NRIS)
