Visual Groundwater is the one 3-D visualization software package that every groundwater and environmental professional should have for delivering high-quality three-dimensional presentations of subsurface characterization data and groundwater modeling results. In the past there has been much confusion and uncertainty associated with the interpretation and reporting of subsurface characterization data and groundwater modeling results. This can be largely attributed to the lack of a suitable medium to properly represent and display the complex spatial and temporal information involved in subsurface investigations. However, during the past five years we have witnessed the opening of a new frontier for 3-D visualization and its application in the environmental industry.
Visual Groundwater has pioneered this new frontier by combining state-of-the-art graphical tools for 3-D visualization and animation with an intuitive graphical interface that lets you easily create three-dimensional images of complex site characterization data and modeling results in just minutes! Visual Groundwater is designed to meet the specialized needs of practicing groundwater professionals and environmental engineers by providing a customized data management system for storing and manipulating borehole data, and by providing a direct import of Visual MODFLOW groundwater modeling projects.
Visual Groundwater utilizes a proprietary data storage format that allows the user to always maintain a direct interaction with the graphical display (even while the objects are rotating and animating). This approach gives you maximum flexibility and control and eliminates the repetitive steps needed to build multiple 'snap-shot' images for each time step. In fact, many 'comparable' visualization packages do not even support animation of time-varying data. These specialized Visual Groundwater input data files are easily created using the VGW Data Converter.
