Category: Geotechnical Data Management
Engineering projects generate large volumes of subsurface data including borehole logs, laboratory testing results, and groundwater monitoring records. Managing these datasets efficiently requires structured engineering databases and standardized workflows.
This section of the GAEA Knowledge Center explores best practices for organizing and managing geotechnical investigation data.

AGS, DIGGS and Structured Data Exchange in Geotechnical Workflows
Geotechnical information often moves between field teams, laboratories, consultants, clients, and software platforms. When each handover uses a different spreadsheet layout or a report that must be re-entered, teams spend time reconstructing structure and checking meaning. Structured geotechnical data exchange gives that handover an agreed framework. AGS and DIGGS are two important approaches to exchanging…

Introducing the GAEA Migration Center: A Practical Path from Legacy Geotechnical Data
For many geotechnical, environmental, geological, and infrastructure organizations, the challenge of modernizing software is not choosing a new system. It is deciding what to do with decades of existing data. Borehole logs, laboratory results, project databases, templates, geological descriptions, monitoring records, and historical investigations may be spread across legacy applications, local databases, spreadsheets, government systems,…

Excel vs GDMS: Choosing a Geotechnical Laboratory Data Workflow
Spreadsheets are familiar, flexible and useful throughout geotechnical work. A well-designed workbook can support calculations, organize a small investigation and help an experienced professional explore results. The challenge appears when that workbook becomes the unofficial database, reporting system and review record for a growing laboratory or consulting organization. At that point, the team needs to…
