List the assessment methods to be used and the context and resources required for assessment. Copy and paste the relevant sections from the evidence guide below and then re-write these in plain English.
Elements describe the essential outcomes. | Performance criteria describe the performance needed to demonstrate achievement of the element. Where bold italicised text is used, further information is detailed in the range of conditions. |
1. | Prepare drawing environment. | 1.1. | Project specifications are sourced and analysed; and objectives, deliverables, constraints and principal work activities are identified and documented in consultation with appropriate persons. |
| 1.2. | Hardware and software are set up and used according to organisational requirements. |
| 1.3. | Menus and drawing defaults are customised to suit project specifications according to organisational requirements. |
| 1.4. | Survey database is created according to organisational requirements. |
| | | |
2. | Create mine drawings. | 2.1. | Drawings for surface mine are created using available software drawing functions and features to meet project specifications. |
| 2.2. | Drawings are designed to incorporate mines safety requirements according to project specifications and organisational requirements. |
| 2.3. | Drawing entities are linked to database attributes to suit project specifications. |
| 2.4. | Supplementary data is extracted from existing mining and engineering plans and drawings to meet project specifications. |
| 2.5. | Detailed views are created using various scales to meet project specifications. |
| 2.6. | Plots are produced at required scale to meet project specifications. |
| | | |
3. | Produce output. | 3.1. | Files are saved in various formats according to organisational requirements. |
| 3.2. | Entities are produced from drawing files or database and listed in required format to meet project specifications. |
| 3.3. | Identified spatial components are accurately measured or set out, and data is reduced to project reference system. |
| 3.4. | Mine volumes are calculated and validated using captured data and measurements, and errors are resolved or contingencies managed according to specifications and organisational requirements. |
| | | |
4. | Finalise drawings. | 4.1. | Drawings are finalised and checked for compliance with project specifications and organisational requirements. |
| 4.2. | Appropriate persons are notified of results according to organisational requirements. |
| 4.3. | Documentation is completed and spatial data archived according to organisational requirements. |
A person demonstrating competency in this unit must satisfy the requirements of the elements, performance criteria, foundation skills and range of conditions of this unit. The person must also use a range of design software program functions and features to produce mine drawings that meet technical specifications for two different projects.
