Integrated Environmental Site Characterization and Analysis: EQuIS in the Military
January 5, 2000
Four sites on military installations or managed by military agencies illustrate how EQuIS has been implemented as a core component of a more comprehensive environmental program to provide information to the decision-maker. With quick and easy access to discrete sampling information, analytical and conceptual models, and GIS, these systems constitute a valuable resource management tool for both proactive and reactive decision making.
Visualizing Environmental Data using ArcView and EQuIS
January 5, 2000
Performing advanced analysis and visualization of environmental and geologic data can be done easily and quickly using the EQuIS ArcView GIS Interface. A consortium comprised of EarthSoft, RockWare, and ESRI has recently developed tools to facilitate better and more efficient use of environmental and geologic data than has heretofore been possible. This solution involves the integration of several industry-standard applications such as ArcView, EVS, GMS, LogPlot, RockWorks, and more to produce a world-class, customizable solution for subsurface investigation and analysis…all accessible through a spatial GIS environment.
Integration of Subsurface Data Management and GIS to Facilitate Model Calibration
October 1, 1999
The development of numerical codes, as well as pre- and post-processors to support these codes, has made the discipline of groundwater modeling increasingly more automated and efficient. The value of such modeling is reliant on the site-specific data used to build and calibrate the models. The integration of EarthSoft’s EQuIS Geology and any of several popular modeling environments results in a data management and analysis system that is more complete than the modeling system alone. Water level data are easily exported to calibration files for the appropriate modeling system. Coupled with EQuIS and other analysis applications, ArcView GIS can be used as an easy, graphical environment with which to facilitate the groundwater model calibrating process.

Using GIS To Manage Remediation Data
GIS holds great potential as a tool for managing environmental site remediation data. While using GIS to locate Superfund sites is commonplace, GIS has played only a minor role in the review and analysis of chemical data gathered during an investigation or monitoring activity.
