How Geology & Mine Surveying works in SkillScorer

Score

Each operator in a crew is scored on the Geology & Mine Surveying skills in the Skills Matrix: tap a cell, type a score, and it saves itself.

Compare

Rank operators, compare two side by side, or compare your crews against each other to see exactly where the strengths and gaps are.

Track

Scores are kept year after year, so you can see who is improving and which Geology & Mine Surveying skills need attention. Reports also follow each shift supervisor's crew.

Geology & Mine Surveying scorecard: common questions

What skills does the Geology & Mine Surveying scorecard include?

SkillScorer's Geology & Mine Surveying scorecard covers 12 skills: Geological Mapping and Logging, Sampling and QA/QC, Resource Modelling Awareness, Grade Control, Survey Setout and Pickup, Survey Instrument Use, Data Management, Mine Planning Liaison, Report and Plan Preparation, Field Safety, Regulatory Standards Knowledge and Attention to Detail. Each one comes with a written description of what it measures, and you can edit, rename, remove or add skills to suit your organisation.

How are operators scored in Geology & Mine Surveying?

Every operator is scored from 1 to 10 on each skill (1 = Poor, 5 = Average, 10 = Elite), one crew and year at a time. Scores autosave in the Skills Matrix, and the 18 built-in reports turn them into rankings, radar charts, skill gaps and year-on-year trends.

Which levels come with Geology & Mine Surveying?

Geology & Mine Surveying starts with these levels (called “Grade” in the app): Graduate, Geologist, Senior Geologist, Principal Geologist and Chief Geologist. They are just a starting point, so you can rename, reorder or replace them.

Can I change the Geology & Mine Surveying skills and wording?

Yes. The skills, levels and labels are all editable per organisation. In mining & resources the app talks about operators, crews and shift supervisors, and you can change any of those words too.
