Once mineral-exploration data is modeled properly, the same backbone can serve more than one audience. Individual investors want to explore companies, see where projects sit on a map, follow the people involved, and keep a list of what they are watching — without the raw complexity of the underlying registries.
The problemThe data that answers an investor’s questions is spread across corporate filings, tenure registries, and market feeds, and it is organized for specialists, not for someone browsing. Presenting it as a clean, navigable product means building a consumer front end that stays honest to a messy source of truth.
What we did
- 01 Reuse the data backbone
A consumer platform built on the same PostGIS-backed model that holds companies, projects, and tenure, rather than a second copy of the data that drifts out of sync.
- 02 Map-first exploration
Company and project browsing anchored to a map, so where a project sits is part of how you navigate it, not an afterthought.
- 03 People and watchlists
Profiles for the people behind projects, and personal watchlists so someone can follow the companies and projects they care about across visits.
- 04 A consumer surface over specialist data
A front end shaped for browsing and following, that hides the registry-level complexity while staying faithful to the underlying records.
