Borealysis

Borealysis was made and designed during the 2016 Brisbane Unearthed Hackathon. The solution analyses data gathered from bore holes to establish the locations of coal seams and the respective fragmentation of these layers. In practice, such a solution could reduce data analysis by up to 3 weeks per hole.
