KBA Summary:: This Knowledge Base Article describes the functionality of the Overview dashboard in BlastIQ™ Insights.

Summary

BlastIQ™ Insights Overview Dashboard provides summarised view of totals pertaining to a defined set of blasts, all in a single page. This dashboard enables of users to generate single blast, weekly, monthly or quarterly reports, based on a range of filters.

Navigation

To navigate to the Overview Dashboard:

From the BlastIQ™ Insights toolbar, select Dashboards.
From the Dashboards menu, select Overview.

Filters

Blasts can be filtered using the following filters:

Blast Name Search Filter:
- Type in the search box.
- Blasts shown are the one containing the typed in characters.
Blast Status Filter:
- Select : All, Fired or Not Fired.
Date Range filter:
- Select Created or Fired Date.
- From and To fields are not mandatory.
- If date range filter is not used the blasts shown are the latest created/fired for the site.
- Maximum number of blasts shown is based on the Display Filter.
Elevation filter:
- Choose a minimum and/or a maximum elevation.
- Select Collar or Grade.
- If elevation filter is not used the blasts shown any elevation range.
- Maximum number of blasts shown is based on the Display Filter.
Tags filter:
- Click on the Tags icon.
- Select the desired tags from each category.
- Click Apply to apply the filter criteria.
- It will return the blasts containing the selected tags based on the following logic:
  - OR for tags within the same category.
  - AND for tags across categories.
- Click on Clear and then Apply to clear all tags filters.
- Click on the X on the top right to close the tags filter by , any edits to the filter criteria will be lost if not previously applied.
  Read more about Tags here.
Clear All filters - clears any filters that have been applied.
Display selection:
- Choose 20, 30, 60, 90, 250, and 500 blasts from the dropdown list.
- This filter dictates the maximum number of blasts displayed in addition of other filters.

Comprehensive information provided in each section.

Filter Bar:
- Filtering by blasts using multiple criteria.
- For comprehensive details please navigate to the Filters section.
Summary:
- Total Number of Blasts that have been fired or created.
- Total Number of Holes.
Hole Condition:
- Actual Information
  - The total count of holes is shown for each state, including Drilled, Measured, Loaded, and Stemmed.
- Water Presence
  - The total count and percentage of wet holes that are displayed separately either wet or wet side.
- Exceptions
  - The number of holes and their respective percentages are displayed for the following states: Not drilled, Abandoned, Potential Misfire, and Conflicting measurements.
- Hot Ground
  - On hover it shows the number of holes.
  - Displays the corresponding percentage of the total holes for each temperature category. Read more here.
  - Only visible for sites that have temperature captured enabled.
  - If colour or ranges have suffer any changes and numbers do not seem to be accurate, please contact BlastIQ Support to get these calculations reprocessed.
QA / QC:
- Backfills - number of holes where backfill is:
  - Required: holes that have a 'backfill required' tag (based on the defined tolerances in SHOTPlus) where the backfill deck has not been loaded.
  - Completed: holes that have a 'backfill required' tag (based on the defined tolerances in SHOTPlus) where the backfill deck has been loaded.
- Backfill Potential Consumption
  - Completed:
    - Length - backfill length that has been completed. The sum of the length of triggered backfill decks that have been completed.
    - Weight - explosive weight that has potentially been saved by completing the backfill tasks. Weight calculated based on the volume of the triggered backfill decks that have been completed
    - Note: calculations for 'Completed' do not take in account any actual backfill decks lengths/volumes, the calculation assumes backfill decks have been completed to design.
  - Required:
    - Length - backfill length that has not been completed. The sum of the length of triggered backfill decks that have not been completed.
    - Weight -
      - fired blasts - explosive weight that has potentially been spent by not completing the backfill tasks.
      - open blasts - explosive weight that has potentially been spent by not completing the backfill tasks, or will be spent is the backfill tasks are not performed.
    - Note: the weight of the explosive is based on the adjusted design explosive density in the deck placed right above the backfill deck.
- Redrills
  - Not Redrilled: holes with the redrill required tag that are not present in the 'redrill of' field on another hole.
  - Redrilled: holes with the redrill required tag that are present in the 'redrill of' field on another hole.
  - Redrill Of: holes marked as a 'redrill of' another hole.
Compliance:
- Clicking ''Compliance'' redirects the user to the Compliance by Blast dashboard.
- Drilling Length.
  - Choose one of the comparison options (Drill Actual Length, First Measured Length, Measured Length or Length After Backfill) from the drop down list.
  - Click on the legend like Overdrilled, Compliant and Undrilled.
  - Hovering the mouse over the stacked bar, you can view the number of holes per state and their corresponding percentage.
- Drilling XY Position.
  - Displays the total and its percentage of the drilling XY Position compliance of holes.
  - Click on the legend like Non-Compliant or Compliant.
  - Hovering the mouse over the stacked bar, you can view the number of holes per state and their corresponding percentage.
- Loading Weight
  - Choose one of the comparison options (Design, Adjusted Design, Weight and Weight %) from the drop down list.
  - Click on the legend like Overloaded, Complaint or Underloaded.
  - Hovering the mouse over the stacked bar, you can view the number of holes per state and their corresponding percentage.
- Final Stemming Length
  - Choose one of the comparison options (Adjusted Design or Design) from the drop down list.
  - Click on the legend like Understemmed, Compliant or Overstemmed.
  - Hovering the mouse over the stacked bar, you can view the number of holes per state and their corresponding percentage.
Quantities:
- Rock Volume
  - Total rock volume that has been designed and blasted. Read more here.
  - States are:
    - Design
      - Displays the total rock design volume in units of m3 (with no decimal point).
    - Viable
      - Displays the total rock best available viable volume in units of m3 (with no decimal point).
    - Is Actual
      - Displays the percentage of actual rock volume (with no decimal point).
- Drilling Productivity
  - Displays the drill actual average penetration rate and the number of holes.
- Loading Weight
  - Bar chart displays one bar per state:
    - Design
      - Total design bulk weight and design packaged weight are displayed in units of tonnes (t) with one decimal point.
    - Adjusted Design
      - Total adjusted design bulk weight and design packaged weight are displayed in units of tonnes (t) with one decimal point.
    - Actual
      - Total actual bulk weight + design packaged weight are displayed in units of tonnes (t) with one decimal point.
  - Hovering the mouse over the bar chart per state displays total loading weight and power factor used.
- Explosives
  - Bar chart displays one bar per product.
  - Hovering the mouse over the bar chart displays the actual weight of the product.
- Drilling Length
