Abstract
In this article, we focused on the experimental implementation of the Power BI application in the field of mining mechanization. This application was created to demonstrate how an interactive data visualization tool can streamline data exploration and provide new insights that can be used to optimize selected processes. The monitored company uses a large number of reports in connection with the organization of the company. They collect many data from the attendance system and the electronic resource planning system, but also a lot of operational data related to the performance of mining mechanization. These data are evaluated in the company only at one-month intervals. Our intention was to transform the data for the year 2021 and create various visual reports through the power BI program, which, thanks to detailed analysis and evaluation, will help to improve the management of mining mechanization. The source of information in our case were tables that contained very poorly arranged data that could not be imported into the Power BI program in the given state.
After collecting the data, we had to transform them, which was a very time-consuming process. Due to limited resources, we had to adjust our original plan. From the entire portfolio of mining mechanization, which consists mainly of mining drills, loaders and trucks, we decided to only process data from mining trucks. The result will be a demonstration of the usability of the power BI system in a mining company to manage information related to mining trucks, but the same approach can be used for all types of mining mechanisms. Implementation of the power BI system was performed on data from one of the biggest underground mines in Slovakia.
期刊介绍:
Acta Montanistica Slovaca publishes high quality articles on basic and applied research in the following fields:
geology and geological survey;
mining;
Earth resources;
underground engineering and geotechnics;
mining mechanization, mining transport, deep hole drilling;
ecotechnology and mineralurgy;
process control, automation and applied informatics in raw materials extraction, utilization and processing;
other similar fields.
Acta Montanistica Slovaca is the only scientific journal of this kind in Central, Eastern and South Eastern Europe.
The submitted manuscripts should contribute significantly to the international literature, even if the focus can be regional. Manuscripts should cite the extant and relevant international literature, should clearly state what the wider contribution is (e.g. a novel discovery, application of a new technique or methodology, application of an existing methodology to a new problem), and should discuss the importance of the work in the international context.
