Industry solutions · Mining
A mine is a moving, three-dimensional operation. Icon Map puts every truck, shovel, drill hole and monitoring point on one map over the real 3D terrain, inside the Power BI reports and Microsoft Fabric workspaces your teams already use.

From pit to port
Fleet telemetry, dispatch, drilling, geology, survey, environmental monitoring and safety systems all describe the same piece of ground. Icon Map brings them together on a single interactive map, so control rooms, engineers and executives see the operation the way it really is: in place, in 3D and in real time.
Build mine reports over 3D terrain in Power BI with Icon Map Pro, or stream a live fleet in 3D with Icon Map for Microsoft Fabric. Either way it lives next to your production reports, with no separate GIS platform to buy, run or train for.
Live haul operations · Icon Map for Fabric
A haul fleet working Bingham Canyon, the deepest open pit on Earth: trucks queue and load at the shovels at the bottom, climb over 500 m up the ramp loaded, dump at the crusher and return empty, on a two-lane haul road with a safe headway. Drag to orbit, hover a truck for its telemetry, click an alert to fly to it, and clear the pit wall for blasting.
In Icon Map for Microsoft Fabric this map is fed by real telemetry: an Eventstream takes the trucks' messages, an Eventhouse stores them, and the vehicle layer draws each truck as a 3D model, snapped to the haul road, with a trail and its latest alert. Here the fleet is simulated in your browser using the same haul-cycle model, on a haul road traced from the terrain. Imagery: USGS / NAIP and elevation: USGS 3DEP 1 m LiDAR, both from the Icon Map Catalog.
How it works
Fleet management, dispatch and IoT systems send position and health messages into a Fabric Eventstream, or land them in a Lakehouse on a schedule.
Microsoft Fabric Real-Time IntelligenceAn Eventhouse keeps every message and answers KQL queries in milliseconds: latest position per truck, queue lengths, cycle times, alerts by zone.
Eventhouse · Lakehouse · Warehouse · semantic modelsIcon Map for Fabric draws the live fleet as 3D models over terrain and imagery, with a trail and the latest status for each truck, and cross-filters the charts beside it. In Power BI, Icon Map Pro maps the same data over 3D terrain in your reports.

Watch queues build at shovels and crushers and compare cycle times by route and shift. In Icon Map for Fabric, replay any shift with the time slider to see where the hours went.
Map exclusion zones, blast clearances and speed zones from your own data, select a zone to see which vehicles and people are inside it, and filter the report to them.
Map drill collars, assay grades and resource blocks over terrain and imagery, aggregate samples into hexagons or your own block outlines, and filter by grade, hole or campaign.
Show survey data over 3D terrain and imagery, and in Icon Map for Fabric bring in 3D tiles, comparing what was planned with what was mined, bench by bench, beside the production numbers.
Keep piezometers, water quality, dust monitors and tailings instruments on one map with their latest readings, and spot the ones trending toward a limit.
Place conveyors, pumps, substations and workshops on the map with their condition and open work orders, so crews go to the right place with the right parts.
Add weather layers to plan blasting, dust control and shutdowns around the conditions. Icon Map for Fabric adds live wind, rain and storm-energy data from the global forecast models.
Show land tenure, rehabilitation progress, community commitments and environmental permits on a map stakeholders can explore for themselves.
