Earth and environmental visualization and analysis differs from environmental data management in that the latter is the process of organizing existing data and the former is the process of generating new data utilizing software and sound scientific knowledge and practical experience.
Because of the complex technical nature of many environmental projects, it becomes difficult to visualize physical site dynamics. Through the use of specialized software and working experience, ddms is able to generate powerful 2 and 3D graphics to answer specific practical questions or to represent a physical environmental condition.
Software also enables us to perform analysis of complex physical conditions based on the data collected from field observations and laboratory analysis. Coupled with an environmental data management system to streamline the data input process, these analyses can be done today in a fraction of the time it historically took, while creating superior graphics to explain analytical output in the process.
- Generating a groundwater elevation and flow direction map from data collected from monitoring wells screened in the same aquifer;
- Generating a series of grids or three-dimensional representations to approximate the lithology of a superfund site;
- Generating a map to communicate a change in bathymetry in a river from one time period to another;
- Generating a graph to show the relationship of benzene, toluene,
ethylbenzene and xylene in water to groundwater elevation over time;
- Calculating the amount of cut and fill needed to satisfy the requirements of an environmental excavation
These finished products are usually delivered to the client in the form of a professional map for use in a report or as digital shapefiles and Adobe PDF ® or both. These products may or may not be accompanied by a technical report.
