Leapfrog Geo
About Leapfrog Geo
Leapfrog Geo is Seequent's flagship product and a widely recognized tool for implicit geological modelling. Rather than requiring geologists to manually digitize interpretations on cross-sections, Leapfrog Geo constructs geological surfaces mathematically from data using its proprietary implicit modelling engine. This approach is faster, more reproducible, and easier to audit than traditional explicit methods. The software supports drillhole data, GIS data, maps, geophysical data, structural measurements, and geochemical data in dynamic, linked workflows that update instantly when new data is added.
Leapfrog Geo is used by exploration geologists, resource geologists, hydrogeologists, and geotechnical engineers across mining, civil engineering, and environmental sectors. In 2023, users created nearly 200,000 new geological models globally. The software is available as named or shared subscription licenses, with extensions for resource estimation (Leapfrog Edge), geophysical interpretation, and hydrogeological modelling. The latest version (2025.3) includes enhanced structural trends, face mapping, and comprehensive integration with the Seequent Evo cloud platform.
Leapfrog Geo's dominant position in the implicit modelling space, particularly among junior to mid-tier mining companies and geological consultancies, makes it one of the two most recognized geology products in the mining industry alongside GEOVIA Surpac. Its key differentiator is the speed and ease of model updates — a critical advantage during fast-moving exploration and resource definition drilling programs.

Carlson Geology
by Carlson Software
Carlson Geology is a module within the Carlson Mining suite providing geological modelling capabilities for both stratigraphic (layered) deposits and hardrock ore bodies. It uses drillhole and sample data to create subsurface models using industry-standard algorithms. Key features include drillhole data entry, cross-sections and fence diagrams, fault modelling, mine reserves calculation, kriging and variograms, block viewing, and optimized pit design. The module runs on AutoCAD and includes IntelliCAD built-in.
DomainMCF
by Maptek
DomainMCF (Maptek Compute Framework) is a cloud-based machine learning tool for geological domain modelling, launched in 2021. It represents a fundamentally different approach: geologists feed in drillhole or sampling data, and DomainMCF uses ML to generate domain boundaries and grade models in minutes rather than the days or weeks traditional methods require. Processing runs on Maptek's Compute Framework cloud infrastructure.
GeologyCore
by Maptek
GeologyCore (also referred to as Vulcan GeologyCore) is Maptek's dedicated geological modelling environment, released in 2021. It provides a workflow-based interface guiding geologists through six key steps: loading and validating data, defining geological domains, and generating, validating, and publishing models. It supports multiple modelling techniques — machine learning, traditional vein modelling, stratigraphic modelling, and implicit modelling — within a single, streamlined interface.
GeoModeller
by Intrepid Geophysics
GeoModeller builds complex, implicit 3D geological models using a geostatistical vector field (CoKriging) interpolator from structural data, cross-sections, drillholes, and geophysics. Formation-specific anisotropy settings enable realistic geological representation even with sparse data. The stratigraphic pile defines model topology, enabling transfer of external geological knowledge into the model.
