Resources & Industrial
Olympic Dam
DBS delivered digital engineering and construction-planning support for works at BHP's Olympic Dam operations, combining engineering information, reality capture and project schedules within coordinated digital environments.
The scope included scan and point-cloud processing, 2D and 3D engineering outputs, model federation, 4D simulation, construction sequencing and TimeLiner animations. Digital construction layouts and methodology visualisations were also developed to communicate site establishment, access, equipment positioning and the sequence of proposed works.
The result was a practical visual environment for planning, coordination, constructability reviews and stakeholder communication before activities progressed on site.

Murra Warra Windfarm
DBS supported the Murra Warra Wind Farm through a combination of reality capture, digital engineering, modelling and construction visualisation, providing a clearer digital understanding of the site and proposed works.
Point-cloud and scanning data was processed and integrated with 3D models and federated project information, while animations and traffic-management simulations were developed to communicate vehicle movements, site access, construction interfaces and proposed methodologies.
