Vulcan Gantt Scheduler

Vulcan Gantt Scheduler handles resource and activity based scheduling. Users can create, sequence and allocate resources, animate scenarios and report activities efficiently and transparently within Vulcan.

Reserves can be broken down to small periods, for example one day, for large triangulation blocks or long centrelines, providing better understanding of the grade distribution across periods.

Users can report every activity on a weekly, monthly or yearly basis with a simple export or copy to csv. This allows for detailed information to be reported by period and easily formatted into desired output. Additionally, the grade can be reported per individual activity, which is helpful when reporting short range plans.

Vulcan Gantt Scheduler can be added to both the Vulcan MineModeller Underground bundle and Vulcan MineModeller Open Pit bundles.
