Gemini TunnelShape

Specialized module for designing, calculating, and documenting tunnels — from simple road tunnels to complex underground caverns.

Designed for tunnel geometry definition, quantity calculation, and as-built verification in a unified environment.

Design, monitor, and document tunnels using technical geometry and as-built data.

Gemini TunnelShape provides tools for manual, parametric, or hybrid modelling of tunnels, including standard profiles, custom contours, niches, rock caverns, and water tunnels. Tunnel geometry can be imported from external sources or created directly in Gemini Terrain, enabling integrated workflows between design and execution.

The module is built for real‑world production follow‑up. Model data can be exported to tunnel rigs, while measured data from the field is imported continuously as the tunnel advances. This provides ongoing documentation of progress and supports accurate follow‑up of blasted volumes and excavation performance.

Gemini TunnelShape integrates with Gemini SurfaceMaker for projects requiring advanced geometry, including rehabilitation of existing tunnels. The combined solution supports overhanging surfaces, point-cloud processing, and geometric verification throughout the design and documentation process.

Common questions about TunnelShape

Find answers here

Yes, it supports both manual and parametric modelling, allowing you to create complex contours, standard profiles, niches, and custom shapes for any tunnel type.

You can import geometry from XML, VIPS road models, and IREDES files, including drill and bolt logs, for compatibility with consultants and field equipment.

The module compares measured data with theoretical layers, links results to Process Codes or custom codes, and presents output in reports, drawings, and model visualisations

Yes. It includes dedicated geometric-control tools to verify construction against tolerance requirements, detect deviations, and generate as-built documentation.
