Haul-road corridor screening and engineering decision support

HaulLens generates and screens candidate haul-road corridors, and compares them against terrain, grade, haulage and buildability evidence. It does not produce construction-ready roads — engineering judgement remains part of the workflow.

Start work

Your terrain, your criteria, your study.

  • Load terrain, set terminals and road criteria, then run the screening search.

  • Evaluate supplied alignment

    A different job. It measures a supplied alignment against terrain and reports what it finds. It generates nothing, and it cannot fall back to generating anything.

  • Reopen a study already saved on this backend.

Engineer demonstrations

Worked examples, to look at before you commit terrain of your own.

  • A cached run on public-domain USGS 3DEP lidar terrain: 40 candidates, one corridor family.

  • See three materially different candidate corridor families on a controlled landform.

  • See why HaulLens refuses a corridor and the reason it gives.

  • A small synthetic end-to-end run, flagged DEMO DATA throughout.

All demonstrations are cached runs of the frozen v1 generator — not mine data, not Solomon data, and not real-mine validation. The corridors shown are HaulLens screening outputs: not as-built roads and not engineered vertical profiles. On the real-terrain run the recovery programme record shows it is not the only candidate corridor within the declared grade limit on that ground. Each demonstration names its own terrain source on its own page, read from the run; the Validation Programme carries the evidence.

Validation & evidence

Current validation status, with the evidence behind it.

HaulLens has passed its controlled engineering benchmarks, but it has not yet been tested blindly against a real haul road that was designed and built by a mine.
