Upgrading from WinLoG Version 4 to GaeaSynergy/WinLoG Version 6
Migrating from WinLoG version 4 to the GaeaSynergy/WinLoG version 6 platform provides significant improvements in project management, GIS integration, reporting, data visualization, collaboration, and centralized geological data management. Because GaeaSynergy version 6 uses a newer database architecture than WinLoG version 4, existing templates and projects must be imported into the new platform using the built-in…

Why Excel Fails for Geotechnical Data Management (And What to Use Instead)
For decades, Microsoft Excel has been the default tool for managing geotechnical and environmental data. It’s familiar, flexible, and widely available. But here’s the reality: Excel was never designed for geotechnical data management. As projects become more complex—multi-borehole investigations, long-term groundwater monitoring, contaminant modeling—the limitations of spreadsheets become impossible to ignore. In this guide, we’ll…

Why Your Contaminant Model Is Wrong (And How to Fix It)
Contaminant transport models are supposed to bring clarity to complex subsurface systems. But in practice, many models—especially those used for groundwater contamination and landfill assessments—are fundamentally flawed. They may look polished. They may produce clean breakthrough curves. They may even pass regulatory review. And yet… they’re wrong. Not because the software failed—but because the assumptions,…

How to Build a Breakthrough Curve for Contaminant Transport
Breakthrough curves are one of the most powerful tools in contaminant hydrogeology. Whether you’re assessing landfill leachate migration, evaluating remediation performance, or modeling groundwater contamination, a well-constructed breakthrough curve provides clear insight into how contaminants move through subsurface systems over time. In 2026, the process goes beyond spreadsheets. With advanced tools like POLLUTE and MIGRATE,…
