Validation & QA/QC

Validation & QA/QC Examples

These examples demonstrate how WinLoG applies automated validation rules to borehole, sample, laboratory, groundwater, mineral exploration, oil and gas exploration, assay, rock-core, pavement, and subgrade data. The flagship showcase provides broad coverage, while focused examples demonstrate specific workflows. They are designed to show not only how a professional log looks, but how WinLoG identifies inconsistent, incomplete, or physically questionable data before a record is finalized.

Validation & QA/QC Showcase

The flagship QA/QC example combines soil, SPT, laboratory, groundwater, and rock-core data in a single borehole. Deliberate errors and warnings demonstrate automated domain checks and cross-dataset consistency validation.

Demonstrates: SPT, Water Content, Atterberg Limits, USCS, Groundwater, Core Run, RQD, SCR, TCR, Validation Results, Completeness and Confidence.
