October 2025 - What's New

  1. Updated workflow for Pre-Processed data


  1. Measurement Offset Tool
We have released an offset tool for 2D measurement lines and polygons. To utilize this function, users can right-click on their measurements and enter a positive or negative value to offset the measurement to one direction or another. Read more here.



  1. Haul Road AI - New Pot Hole Detection 
Strayos Haul Road AI can now automatically detect potholes on haul roads from drone imagery. This new capability improves haul road analysis by automatically identifying surface defects that can affect truck performance and safety, helping maintenance teams prioritize road repairs before they lead to delays or equipment wear.




  1. Add your company logo to your account to be displayed:  users can now view their logos on the front-end interface upon signing into Strayos. Logos can be added under the user account settings > Designer and Customer. 




  1. RTK Drone Survey Optimization:  

RTK flights can now be processed with 3 GCPs, instead of the 5 that were required previously. To enable this, users must have their RTK activated when flying, and then can choose the toggle pictured below:


  1. Fragmentation AI Improvements
Users can now select the rock diameter type used in fragmentation analysis - Maximum, Minimum, or Average making results more accurate for different material types.
This new feature allows users to control the way the fragmentation size distribution is calculated, ensuring the analysis reflects the most relevant measurement standard for their operation. Whether you want to emphasize larger fragments (using Max), smaller fines (using Min), or a balanced view (using Average), the system adapts automatically in the FragAI calculations.

  1. DT-Enaex Timing Logger Export
Strayos can now export blast timing data compatible with Enaex timing systems, supporting easier integration with external tools.

You build the timing plan in Strayos: assign hole IDs, delay times, initiation type, detonator/channel IDs, and any sequencing groups.
Now with the DT- Enaex 4G, we can automatically export this data to the Enaex electronic blasting system timing logger. 



  1. Smart Drill File Management: Upload multiple drill plan files within a single project and attach MWD files individually to each plan, improving MWD workflows. To read more, follow this tutorial: How to Upload MWD Data


  1.  Blast Calculator
The new Blast Calculator helps you quickly estimate key blasting parameters. Just enter your blast design values, such as hole diameter, burden, spacing, and explosive density, and the calculator automatically shows:
  1. Poundage
  2. Volume/Tonnage
  3. Powder Factors

This tool is visible within the Drill Design module, as well as the Blast Report. 



  1. Added "No Trigger" option to seismograph readings (tutorial


  1. Provide a Trimble Groundworks file as an XML file for exported drill designs




  1. Updated the Terrain Editing function to edit multiple areas at once, and reflect terrain edits on exported surfaces





------------------------------------------------------------




September 2025 - What's New 

  1. SAI (Segmentation AI) - Strayos has introduced a new segmentation AI tool for auto detecting stockpiles and other terrain features as measurement polygons. This tool has been released in its beta phase, and can be found in the toolbar (pictured below). To utilize this tool, read more in the article here.
                  



                  


  1. Added site-level Burden settings - users can now create burden thresholds for specific sites within the site settings. These burden threshold settings will carry into the drill design module, and all associated reports. This can be found through the options menu for each site (pictured below): 
            


  1. Removed sub-drill from average bench height calculation 
                  




------------------------------------------------------------

August 2025 - What's New

  1. Enhanced Blast Plan Report - this report has been enhanced with editable formatting and new fields. The report is designed to give blasters a submittal-type report before conducting blasting operations. 


  1. Enhanced Toe Burden Visual - The new collar and toe burden visual allows users to see the inter-hole connections which the inter-hole burden calculation is based. This reports the closest inter-row burden measurement. 



------------------------------------------------------------

July 2025 - What's New 
  1. New Project Labeling Function - we have released a new project labeling function, which allows users to create labels for projects for better organization and optimized searching. Project labels can be created by selecting the "+" next to each project. We have default labels shown, however custom labels can be added.

The labels can be filtered from the upper right hand corner, as when selected, the project with the selected labels will appear on the left. 

  1. Added Triangulation for Terrain Flattening - We have added another method for terrain flattening. This is aimed to enhance areas where the lowest point, and best fit plane do not satisfy. 






------------------------------------------------------------

June 2025 - What's New

  1. D80 Rock Statistics in Fragmentation Analysis - Users can now select a specific rock size within the D80 to D100 range, which will then display within the muckpile. In addition to the boundary displayed, the rock size, ID, and percent will show as well. 

  1. Blast Exclusion Zone - Strayos has released a tool to help operations identify blast exclusion zones when designing blast designs and site security plans. Read more on how to use this tool here.



  1. Updated timing  table option in blast report - We have added a timing table as an option in the blast report. This shows each hole's detonation time (with decks if applied), loading rule of each hole, and coordinates of each hole's position.

May 2025 - What's New

  1. Blast Report Enhancements - Users can now update their products and seismograph results from within the blast report module, versus the individual Loading and Vibration modules. User can now create a blast report without going through the design steps. If a shot diagram and timing diagram is needed, a drill design will still need to be created. 

      

  1. Blast Calculator - The blast calculator allows users to enter their blast parameters, to then have them written into the Blast Report.


  1. New Single Sign On Option - users can now use their singular Google or Microsoft credentials to log into Strayos. Please reach out to support@strayos for more information. 


  1. Strayos Fiedler - Updated user Interface (release version 4.7) 
  1. Strayos FragR - Updated depth colorization when capturing images (release version 2.0.1)





------------------------------------------------------------


April 2025 - What's New 
  1. New support ticket system - as some of you have may noticed, the support channel has changed slightly in appearance. We have updated to a new support system to handle user support questions. Each ticket is submitted directly to our support team to be reviewed. Our team will answer tickets in a timely manner, responding directly back to you.

  1. Copying drill designs from project to project - we have improved the shot copying process to eliminate overwrites. Now, when looking to copy a drill design, start in the destination project, and copy from the existing project. 
                              
  1. Decimal Place Rounding Enhanced decimal place rounding and settings can be set now through the user settings.
                              

  1. Enhance Cross Section View - Quickly compare projects and designs with elevation differences displayed. 
   



  1. New Shot Volume Report - Provides and automated report that details blast volume with hole breakouts, based on Strayos's automated shot volume.
                                       

  1. Enhanced Block Model Viewer - Upload block models to view individual block properties, customize display and layering of block models with 3D surfaces. 



  1. RTK Flag Image Positioning - When RTK is being utilized, Strayos will now display the RTK flag of each image <50 when uploading images (highlighted orange). This means the RTK has lost its "Fixed" position in flight. Users can still process their data, however accuracy may be affected. Points to address if RTK is <50 are: 
    1. Location of bast station in proximity to drone flight
    2. If using CORS Network, signal strength and location to nearest source of corrections.
