Why choose Structura for televiewer data interpretation?
> Greater efficiency
Structura typically analyzes acoustic (ATV) and optical (OTV) televiewer data in under five minutes per borehole, helping you move from raw data to decision-making faster.
> Consistent, validated results
Structura has been validated against expert manual logging and can match or exceed interpretation performance while reducing subjectivity and variability across interpreters.
> More value from existing data
Structura extracts more than just structural orientation data, including structure classification, aperture, and roughness. Additional ATV outputs include strength estimates, Rock Quality Designation (RQD), and Rock Mass Rating (RMR), helping you unlock additional insights from data you’re already collecting.
How Structura works
Upload your acoustic (ATV) or optical (OTV) televiewer data files through the secure Structura web application.

Reprocess years of historical televiewer data in a fraction of the time
Structura lets teams batch-process legacy datasets using a consistent interpretation methodology, helping standardize historical databases and extract new information from data already collected.
Validated in collaboration with Rio Tinto Kennecott Copper

In a 2025 collaborative pilot study with Rio Tinto Kennecott Copper involving ~2,750 metres of historical televiewer data, Structura:
Reduced acoustic televiewer (ATV) data turnaround time by an estimated 67%
Produced equivalent or better-quality results compared with expert manual logging
Identified critical orientation errors in 10–20% of manually processed holes
Built on 35+ years of geotechnical engineering expertise
Structura was built by engineers at BGC Engineering, a globally recognized consulting firm specializing in geotechnical, environmental, and applied earth sciences for over 35 years.
Frequently Asked Questions About Structura

Structura is designed to work with most standard acoustic televiewer (ATV) and optical televiewer (OTV) datasets, including a wide range of geological conditions. Results are best when geological features are clearly visible in the imagery, and Structura's built-in image quality indicator automatically flags low-quality intervals, so you know where additional review may be needed. If you have questions about your data’s compatibility with Structura, reach out to contact@structurageo.com. |
| Yes. Structura exports results in standard CSV format for use in common geotechnical and data-analysis workflows. |
|
Yes. Structura is cloud‑hosted on Microsoft Azure and has successfully completed cybersecurity reviews by major mining companies. |
