Abstract:The Louisiana Department of Transportation (DOTD) has been collecting geotechnical data in the District labs for many years in a variety of different formats, and in many cases, District personnel are inputting the same data repeatedly in different systems. Accessing this data and combining it with new data for the purpose of design, analysis, visualization, and reporting is difficult because the data has been generated by disparate systems and stored in various digital and non-digital formats. Essentially, there is no single system or repository nor an integrated, systematic approach for collecting, managing, reporting, archiving, and retrieving the vast amount of geotechnical data that is collected or generated by District labs each year. With advances in computing capabilities, software tools are available that streamline the entire data management process from data collection through reporting, archiving, and map-based retrieval/reporting. Dataforensics configured an off-the-shelf Geotechnical Data Management System to fulfill the needs of the DOTD District labs. It enables the District labs to store their geotechnical data in a consistent database format while improving the reliability and making it more accessible to key stakeholders by integrating with SiteManager and dTIMS (CoreLog). Additionally, Dataforensics has incorporated the DOTD Pile Load Test Data into this Enterprise database for Headquarters, which replaces an in-house built system and provides a basis for future expansion to incorporate all the data from the 10-2GT project into this new enterprise system.
