Spatial Intelligence

Know what’s below your feet.

Tap any map point for an instant synthesis: what claims are active, what geology underlies the area, nearby gold anomalies, drill holes, historic mine workings, and fault proximity — answers in seconds, not hours of tab-switching.

Pro

Tools the portal never had.

The complete toolkit for serious Nova Scotia prospectors — capabilities the government portal simply doesn’t have, built natively for iOS.

✓ Claim Assessment — multi-layer prospectivity scoring for any claim in one tap

✓ Assessment Work Tracker — log fieldwork, track credits, and export Form 10/11 PDFs for submission to the Registrar

✓ Faribault 1898–1919 Survey — exclusive digitised shafts, veins, faults, and anticlines not on the government viewer

✓ Prospecting Targets — convergence analysis ranking locations where multiple data sources agree, with filtering by commodity and minimum source count

✓ Staking Calculator — select cells for a live fee and area total, then generate a ready-to-copy NovaROC Tract Description

✓ Claim Watch — expiry alerts at 90, 30, 7, and 1 day, plus instant status-change push notifications

✓ Expiring Claims — province-wide expiry list, recently released licences, and your watchlist in one view

✓ Staking History — full chain of title for any cell, sourced from the provincial inactive licences registry

✓ Full What Is Here Analysis — tap anywhere for nearby occurrences, geochemistry, drill holes, abandoned mines, and ice flow data

✓ Near Me Search — occurrences, abandoned mines, drill holes, and more within a chosen radius of your GPS

✓ Export to KML, GeoJSON, or CSV — for use in Google Earth and other GIS tools

✓ Offline Field Mode — search and the bundled data layers work with no connection (LiDAR and Geophysics stream live tiles and need a connection)

✓ Unlimited Saves & Field Notes — no cap on favourites, pins, samples, or waypoints

Privacy Policy

Applies to all apps published by Auriven Labs.

Last updated: June 2026

Overview

Auriven Labs is committed to protecting your privacy. We collect as little data as possible — and only what is needed to make our apps work.

Information We Collect

Location data — Used only while the app is open to show your position on-screen and to power features like Near Me search. Never transmitted to our servers.
Crash reports — Anonymous diagnostic data via Apple’s standard crash reporting, used to fix bugs. This data is not linked to your identity.

We do not gather names, email addresses, or other personally identifiable information.

What We Don’t Do

We do not require account registration.
We do not sell, rent, or share your data with third parties.
We do not run advertising or track you across apps or websites.

Subscriptions & Purchases

Pro features operate through Apple’s auto-renewable subscription model. All payment processing is handled entirely by Apple — we never receive or store your payment details. Users manage subscriptions via Apple ID settings, governed by Apple’s Privacy Policy.

Device Permissions

Calendar — With your permission, the app can add mineral claim expiry dates to your device calendar so you don’t miss a deadline. These events are created in your own calendar and are never sent to us.
Notifications — With your permission, the app schedules reminders (such as claim expiry alerts) on your device. These are generated locally and are not sent through our servers.

Third-Party Services

Our apps display maps and data from Apple Maps and the Nova Scotia government’s ArcGIS services. The app may also link to third-party websites you choose to open (such as the Nova Scotia registry or reference pages). These services are governed by their own privacy policies, and we do not control the data they collect.

Data Storage

All data you create in the app — favourites, field notes, points of interest, settings, and cached map data — remains under your control, stored on your device. Auriven Labs does not operate servers storing your personal data. Uninstalling the app removes all locally stored information.

iCloud Sync

If you are signed into iCloud, data you create in the app — including favourites, points of interest, watched claims, and assessment work logs — may sync across your devices via Apple’s CloudKit service. This data is stored in your private iCloud account and is not accessible to Auriven Labs. It remains in your iCloud account until you delete it within the app or remove it from your iCloud settings. Your iCloud data is governed by Apple’s Privacy Policy.
