Geotech's
Enviro Data software has been used on a daily basis by many clients for
over ten years, storing hundreds of millions of records of data for
thousands of projects. It stores and displays environmental quality data, such
as field and laboratory data for water, soil and air. Users can
cost-effectively import analytical and other data, review the quality,
select data, and generate reports, graphs and maps, or provide data to
other programs. Capabilities include a lab and field data interface, data
validation, a user-friendly selection screen, and integrated graphing,
mapping and reporting. It has been accepted by numerous industrial
companies, government agencies, and consulting companies. The Enviro Data
user interface runs within Microsoft Access, and because it is open
source, the software can be easily
customized for specific project needs. Enviro Data is the only program of
its kind that works equally well
storing the data in Access, SQL Server, or Oracle, and we have numerous
users on each of these platforms. We have an excellent relationship with
most of the major laboratories to facilitate transferring data into Enviro
Data efficiently and accurately. We also have a strong interface from
Enviro Data into ArcGIS, and have a companion product called
Enviro Spase that helps you efficiently display your data on GIS maps.

Your situation
... Site data
drives your investigation and analysis process. Streamlining data
flow into useful information saves time reaching a solution.
Transforming site information into useful communication tools helps
you and your clients see critical environmental issues and
compliance remedies. Bringing closure to environmental issues
quickly and cost effectively depends on how well you manage your
data. |
Our Solution ...
We help you manage your project data from start to finish - more
efficiently and cost effectively - with software that is easy to
learn and use.
Going beyond the data ...
We bring you the expertise and support to create a single-user or
company-wide standard database that is central to all your site data
workflow applications - from the field and lab to the regulators.
|
Menu-driven Interface
- Enviro Data's menus guide you through the the functionality of the
software, making it simple to use for people of all skill levels.
From building your first database through routine data import and
reporting, you can do what you need with just a few mouse clicks.
For more complicated tasks, "wizards" take you step-by-step through
the process, asking you for the necessary information, and helping
you avoid common problems for that particular task. And Enviro Data
comes with many values already set for you, so you can get useful
results without having to worry about too many details, while
allowing you to fine-tune most aspects of the program. |
Field Tool- Enviro Data's
powerful Field Tool/Sample Event Planning feature lets
you bring database power to planning and executing your field
events. Start by specifying the locations and QC samples you will be
gathering. Then select the parameters and methods for field and lab
measurement and analysis. Print your chains of custody directly from
the database. Create a file to take to the field to enter that data,
and then easily import it. When the lab data comes in, import that,
including blind samples and unsuccessful sample attempts. And at the
end, run a completeness report to see what you actually received. |
|
|
Wizard-assisted Import
- Import your data cleanly and quickly. Fill in missing data,
enforce consistency, verify and validate as necessary, convert to
standard units, and even be notified of exceedences right during the
import! And really save time by having your labs check your data
before they send it! Our reference file system closes the loop
between labs and data users, requiring the labs to check data
against updated lists of well names, parameter spellings, and other
data elements prior to delivering the data. This wizard-assisted
import and use of the reference files has reduced the time for
importing and checking lab deliverables by a factor of six, saving
hours and dollars. |
Flexible User-Defined
Import
- Enviro Data comes with several dozen pre-configured imports that
will satisfy many of your needs. You can also easily define your own
import formats. Arrange your data in an Excel file with one result
in each row and one data element in each column. (It may be that way
already.) Then use the Enviro Data Import Wizard to walk you through
assigning each column in your Excel file to fields in Enviro Data.
Then you can save the format with a name to use next time. |
|
|
Advanced Data Checker
- Now Enviro Data provides even more
help when you need to import difficult files. This powerful tool,
developed in cooperation with Enviro Data power users at Weston
Solutions, lets you view your data at each data level - sites,
stations, samples, methods, parameters, and clean up the file to
improve the quality of the import. You can even create a whole
database, sites, stations, valid value lists, etc. from one or more
import files. You can also run your own custom queries at any stage
of the import process, making the import of difficult data files
much easer. |
Software-assisted Data Validation
- Let Enviro Data do the heavy lifting
for your data validation tasks. Automatically review and flag data
for holding times, spike recoveries, valid detection limits, QC
frequencies, and much more. The software does the calculations, then
presents the results for the validator to make the final
determination of suitability for use. Enviro Data goes beyond
file-by-file automated data review with historical outlier analysis,
charge balance calculations, and more. And you can track the review
status of every result in the database. |
|
|
|
Easy Data Selection
- Enviro Data was built for users of all skill levels, and the
data selection process reflects this. You can select data using a
simple form-based query system, shown to the left, to see just the
data you need. This system lets you select data from drop-down lists
of station names (wells, borings, etc.), parameter names, etc.,
enter the dates and/or depths you are interested in, and then
retrieve just the data you want to see, without getting involved in
complicated SQL (structured query language) queries. (Or you can use
SQL if you prefer.) After you have selected the data you want to
work with, you can then create printed reports, graphs, or maps,
save the data to disk, or copy it to the clipboard to paste into
other programs. You can even make a subset of your database to
transfer to other locations. |
Expanded Groups Feature - This
powerful new feature in Enviro Data helps you organize, retrieve,
and display just the way you need to for your projects. This
grouping works for stations, samples, and parameters, including
parameters by different methods. You can easily create the groups
using the Select Data screen. Now stations can be in multiple
groups. This feature also lets you deal with thorny issues like
parameters in different groups resulting from analysis by different
methods. |
|
Many Sophisticated Report Formats
- The program comes with several dozen pre-configured reports that
will satisfy many of your needs. Format your results exactly as you
wish, with special handling of flagged data, non-detects, dilutions,
and trailing zeros. Save your selections for later use. Change the
standard reports and queries, or add your own. Do it your way! Other
powerful Enviro Data features include tracking of quality control
and review status of all the data, and also support for data
validation. Believe it or not, Enviro Data can even overcome
Access's problem with displaying the right number of decimal places
where there are trailing zeros. (This is something that Excel can't
easily do either.) You can even define parameters for each station,
and include those lines whether they were analyzed or not. |
Boring Log Lithology
Display - This new feature now lets you display
lithology logs showing your sample data. Choose from over 60
lithology patterns or add your own. Show depth ranges, lithology
patterns and names, formation/aquifer information, detailed sample
descriptions, and other data for your samples. |
|
|
Create Your Own Reports
- A very strong feature of
Enviro Data is its user-configurable
custom reporting. For that project
with special requirements, it's easy to modify an existing report or
create a new one with a specific data presentation. This is one
of the many features that makes Enviro
Data almost infinitely flexible; able
to accommodate project needs while leveraging the power of a time-tested
product. |
Graph Your Data
- Enviro Data can automatically convert your data to
consistent units, find the regulatory limit that you have selected for the
parameter being displayed, and draw a graph showing the data and the
limit. Graphing features can be turned on and off so you can get
just the display that you need for your specific project requirements. |
|
|
Create Maps Right In the Database -
If
you don't need a full-blown GIS system, or just want an easy way to make
simple maps of your data, Enviro Data
has basic mapping capabilities built right into the database software. You can
display your existing CAD drawing as a base map, and then select a
parameter for display by date, depth, etc.. The software will
then let you select cutoff values, and display colored dots and the values
on the map. |
Many Export Formats - Enviro
Data can export data in many useful formats. Some formats are for
other popular software such as Surfer, RockWare, EVS, and Enviro
Insite. Some are for agencies such as various states, the EPA, Air
Force (ERPIMS) and Army (ADR and ERIS). Other available formats are
for printing or further processing. Contact Geotech about your
format needs. |
|
|
Sophisticated Excel Export - Our
popular Color Coded report is now also available as an Excel export.
Compare each result to up to four regulatory limits at a time, and
work with your data before it goes in your report. |
Export to Other Programs
- Use data from Enviro Data in your existing analysis and display applications such as Excel, Word, Surfer,
RockWorks, EVS, QuickLog, ArcGIS, and many other programs. Export just the data you need in a variety of different file formats.
And Geotech's Enviro Spase product really
brings the GIS link alive. |
|
|
Flexible Regulatory Limits - Enviro Data
can store and display multiple regulatory limits by matrix, parameter and
site. The editing screen for this data is shown to the left. The graphing
system can display a selected limit. Some of the reports can highlight
data records that exceed the
limit, or show only the exceedences. |
Industrial Strength Database Design
- This powerful and intuitive software uses Microsoft Access as a
front-end user interface and any ODBC-compliant database such as
Access, SQL Server or Oracle as a back-end database server. This
open system, based on industry standard software, allows the system
to be easily modified, by you or by Geotech, for specific project
requirements. The data storage structure (data model) has been
carefully refined over many years based on our experience storing
millions of records of site data, and satisfies the rules of Fifth
Normal Form data structure. |
|
Easy to Use - The best news is that
Enviro
Data provides you with all of this
scalable power while still being easy to use! Whether you are implementing
a data management
system from scratch, replacing an outdated older program, or just trying
to get your data organized, you can be productive with your new system in
just a few hours. Backed up by our widely praised customer support and our

New!
Biological Data |
|
Along with its other uses, Enviro Data has been
used for many years to manage laboratory data for tissue sampling.
Over the last several months Geotech has been working with Oak Ridge
National Laboratory in Tennessee to expand the Enviro Data software
to better handle additional types of biological data by integrating
the system that they have used internally for many years, into
Enviro Data, combining the best capabilities of both into a
flexible, yet easy to use system. Now you can use Enviro Data to
handle taxonomy, life stage, gender and tissue type as well as your
chemical data. This can be used for both discrete samples or
population census data. Contact Geotech for more information! |
