Project summary

To improve efficiencies managing subsurface data for millions of linear feet of data stored in multiple disparate systems, the United States Army Corps of Engineers (USACE) engaged Dataforensics to help compile and migrate existing historical data into a standardized data management system. The massive volume of data presented challenges with exporting it and creating a single source of truth. To move the agency to a new, cloud-based enterprise solution, Dataforensics needed to clean, standardize, and transfer data from the original system. Dataforensics developed a data migration application to automate the process, dramatically decreasing the amount of time needed to migrate existing datasets into OpenGround, while improving data quality and robustness. Compared to manual migration process, the automated solution saved over 60,000 hours. Moving to OpenGround’s cloud-based, standardized geotechnical data management system significantly improved efficiencies in time, cost, and collaboration across the supply chain. The enterprise solution reduces the carbon and environmental footprint by not having to re-drill boreholes at the same project location and moves USACE towards a digital-based rather than paper-based agency
