In 2010 we launched our 2D Visualisation and Tracking software, ICA and Minedash. This offering not only helped shape your experience underground but also empowered safety and productivity improvements across your operations.
Our software tracking engine has advanced greatly over the last 10 years and with that births our next-generation software platform, HELIX.

HELIX combines a modern interface with powerful tools to build your digital ecosystem. We seamlessly integrate data from your software, hardware, and third-party systems into a single platform, simplifying your hard rock, soft rock, tunnelling and surface technology operations.
Dispatch & Fleet Management
HELIX Dispatch is the workflow and fleet management module that empowers dispatchers and supervisors to oversee shift plans, monitor performance, and address issues promptly. This integrated solution enhances equipment utilization, improves operational efficiency, and ensures timely material extraction, ultimately driving better decision-making and increased safety in mining operations.
- Real time, automated production tracking
- Task management
- Time tracking
- Streamline equipment utilisation and maximise material extraction
- Safety checklists
Advanced Visualisation & Tracking
HELIX 3DConnect is your eyes and ears on the surface and underground. We provide you with a total overview of your operations across multiple mine sites, including integration of your surface maps. Maps can be viewed in 3D and in 2D, depending on what view provides your task with the most value.
- View the location of your personnel, fixed and mobile assets and technology devices underground
- View to scale, 3D and 2D maps with increased granularity
- Preexisting dashboards suited to a variety of business operations
- Configurable dashboard reporting for unique reporting requirements
- Personnel Management
- Safety and Security
Control & Monitoring
HELIX Automation sets up distributed automation processes underground and monitors sensor activity that triggers a series of events. This includes ventilation on demand through personnel and vehicle tracking movements, turning on and off water pumps whilst managing the capacity of the water tank, and better traffic management.
- Use the pre-defined automation and sensor rules set up for your convenience
- Adapt or custom build automation and sensor rules unique to your mining operations
- Directly message personnel from the map
- Third party sensor integration
Personnel & Tracking Management
HELIX Sentinel, MST’s advanced electronic tag-board system, delivers real-time visibility of underground personnel. With digital dashboards and strategically placed screens, it enables precise tracking across zones, enhancing safety, awareness, and operational efficiency. Intuitive visual cues and customisable displays support proactive safety management and help optimise mine site efficiency.
- Monitor the number of personnel within an area or zone
- Track personnel with full profile information provided
- Alerts when personnel are exposed to hazardous environments
- Digitisation of personnel tracking, supplementing physical tagboards
- Safety and security
