Environmental Data Management with ESdatESdat is an environmental data management system for environmental professionalsESdat, developed by EarthScience Information Systems Pty Ltd, is used by environmental professionals for a variety of applications including contaminated/industrial sites, groundwater investigations, general site environmental management and landfill. ESdat is unmatched in its advantages for assisting you with managing environmental data. Its intelligent design enables you to perform many tasks which you previously performed manually. With ESdat you can
ESdat is highly flexible. This means that you can customize its layout, analyses, and reports to meet your specific needs. ESdat ApplicationsESdat can assist any environmental professional such as yourself with one site or many sites with sampling, managing large and/or complex data sets for analysis, and streamlining reporting. Below are some examples. Contaminated and Industrial Site Investigations Groundwater assessmentsYou typically must collect data from several sources for a groundwater assessment project: soil samples, ground water samples, surface water samples, piezometer readings and more. Validating chemical test results and analyzing the data are large tasks. ESdat can help you automate these tasks saving you time and money on each job. LandfillsLandfill monitoring has large data sets over long-term monitoring. ESdat can help you manage these large data sets easily with electronic sampling plans, electronic chain of custody forms (eCOC), laboratory data validation, QA/QC, and streamlined analyses and reporting. Create sample plans to assist with field data collectionESdat can help you before you ever go in to the field. ESdat can help you streamline your sample planning and data collection activities. With ESdat you can create a digital sampling plan which you can then download to your PDA or PC Tablet which has PLog Environmental installed on it. Click here for more information about PLog Environmental. ESdat then imports your field test and sample information from PLog and use the data to create an electronic Chain of Custody/laboratory specifications for submittal to the labs with the samples. Import field, historical and laboratory dataField and borehole dataYou can import validated field data such as pH, turbidity, temperature , groundwater measurements, et cetera directly in to ESdat using ESdat Excel based templates or by using PLog Environmental. If you are using ESdat and PLog Environmental together, you can compare data collected in the field using PLog Environmental against specifications and test results received from the laboratory once you uplaod the data from PLog Environmental to ESdat which saves you many hours of checking information manually. You can also add data to ESdat directly on a map interface or in tables. Historical dataYou can import historical data you have for a site directly using a tabular format in Excel. Data will be validated prior to import in to the ESdat data management system. Laboratory dataYou can import data you receive from the laboratory directly in to ESdat, including all QA information such as holding times, blanks and more. Validation of data is performed via ESdat prior to import in to the data management system. Perform chemical quality assurance on lab and field dataReviewing laboratory and field test results manually can take you a long time. ESdat can produce Quality Assurance reports for laboratory and field data. Items include holding time violations and evaluating exceedances for tolerated percent changes based on historical values for QA samples. Create a variety of reports based on your reporting needsChemistry TablesWith ESdat you can produce formatted chemistry tables in Excel format via a data export in ESdat. You can specify items in the table such as compound orientation (horizontal or vertical), compound grouping, formatting (how to display values that pass standards), environmental standards and exceedances of environmental standards by font changes or highlighting fields. Trend Analysis and GraphsYou can produce trend graphs for any time-series data using ESdat. Using ESdat you can:
Maps and Spatial AnalysisESdat has all the basic functionality required for a GIS system to enable you to produce report quality maps. Additionally you can export data to Arc Map, Mapinfo, Surfer or Google Earth. Borehole LogsESdat is capable of importing borehole logging data directly from PLog or Excel to integrate the borehole data with the data from the rest of your environmental site data. ESdat can then generate borehole reports using your existing gINT or WinLog software application. No more duplicate data entry to generate borehole logs. |
