Kimmer Explore
A local-first exploration-data platform for Windows. Kimmer Explore runs entirely on your machine as one desktop app, then treats your drillhole, assay and QAQC data as an append-only, version-tracked record you can time-travel, audit and revert. This is a pre-release beta in development, it manages and analyses data today; it does not yet export files or draw 3D.
Exploration data, versioned and auditable.
Everything Kimmer Explore does today runs on-machine against one bundled local database, no cloud, no server to stand up, and every operation records its own lineage.
One bundled database, no server to run
Kimmer Explore runs a bundled spatial database entirely on your machine, a single shared local store, multi-user ready. Nothing leaves the machine; switching from local to a remote database you control is a config change, not a cloud service.
Append-only, system-versioned data
Every record carries its own version and validity window, and live data is always the current version. Nothing is ever deleted. Query any dataset 'as of' a past date, and revert as a new append that keeps the full history intact.
Lineage, audit and per-field history
Operations record lineage edges (dataset v3 → operation → result v8), an audit log tracks every change, and per-field change history shows who changed what and when, so a number in a grid always traces back to its source.
Roles enforced twice
Four roles (data manager, field geologist, approver, viewer) are enforced twice: once in the app and again in the database itself, so the same authorization decision holds on both sides.
Validate-before-write import pipeline
Upload → auto column-map → validate (errors and warnings surfaced before any write) → commit, with reference-integrity and duplicate-signature checks. CSV, TSV, XLSX and XLSM in, with Turkish encoding auto-detection and delimiter sniffing.
Deterministic geology operations
Three seeded, reproducible operations: assay-split (QAQC routing), qaqc-update (Standard/Duplicate/Blank distribution against reference values), and met-split, a deterministic optimization solver. No AI, no black box; every run is auditable through lineage.
Spatial map and 2D crossplot
Spatial layers render on an interactive map with bounding-box and polygon selection. The crossplot computes correlation and regression across the full dataset, with deterministic sampling for large tables.
Grids that don't choke on scale
Paged, filterable and sortable grids stream directly from the database, 250k+ rows scroll smoothly without loading everything at once, and deep pages stay fast even far into a large table.
Drill-progress tracking
A rig-by-day Gantt, daily meterage logging with full CRUD, rig and hole management, and plan-vs-actual stats, the day-to-day program bookkeeping that usually lives in a spreadsheet, kept in the same versioned store as the assays.
Your deposit data never leaves the machine
Kimmer Explore is built for teams who can't, and won't, push drillhole and assay data to a cloud. Everything, database included, runs on your machine inside one signed desktop app. Multi-user access, versioning and role enforcement all happen against a single shared local database, with a config-only path to a remote database you control if you ever want one.
- Bundled spatial database, no separate database install or admin
- Append-only history: revert and 'as-of' queries instead of destructive edits
- Role-based access so viewers, geologists and approvers see the right slice
- Validate-before-commit imports with Turkish CSV/XLSX encoding handling
- Deterministic, seeded operations that record their own lineage
