DORA Release Notes | Sept 16, 2026

Updated: Input Feature Scoring

DORA's input feature scoring has been updated to improve transparency and better reflect modelling suitability in Step 4: Select Input Features. The composite score (0–100) is now the average of four equally weighted criteria instead of five: mineralization relationship, model alignment, raster redundancy, and frequency and sampling compatibility.

Note: If you ran a prediction before this feature was released, you will not see the updated feature scoring. Re-run the experiment from Step 3: Select Deposit Type to generate the score breakdown.


Score Breakdown Now Visible

You can now see how a raster performed against each individual criterion, not just its overall score. This makes it easier to understand why a layer scored well or poorly and whether to include it based on your geological judgement.


AOI Coverage Displayed Separately From Composite Score

AOI Coverage is no longer included in the composite score calculation. It now appears as a standalone coverage percentage, showing what proportion of your AOI the raster covers. This means a raster is no longer penalized for coverage gaps when its geological relevance is strong.

You can now weigh the two signals independently and decide what matters most for your project.

New: Download Learning Points from DORA

You can now export your Learning Points from DORA as a GeoParquet file. This makes it easier to audit your model inputs, share training data with collaborators, or bring your learning points into external GIS tools for further analysis.
