PLog is the most advanced digital system available today for documenting subsurface
investigations. With PLog you can easily enter field data on your handheld Personal
Digital Assistant (PDA) and then upload it to gINT on your personal computer. Use
PLog to enter any type of borehole, test pit and well log data you need including:
- Soil and rock samples
- Soil and rock stratigraphy
- Groundwater conditions
- Environmental data
- Installation details for inclinometers and wells
- Drilling notes
- And much more
PLog is a very flexible system that can be customised to meet your field data collection
requirements. Using PLog dramatically increases accuracy because:
- Data is entered on-site and does not need to be re-typed at the office from
handwritten field logs.
- Data items are selected from dropdown lists customised to meet your company’s requirements.
- Data items are validated by the “smart” form capabilities.
PLog utilises the Palm OS which offers an exceptionally long battery life compared
to Pocket PC systems. A ruggedised case enables you to use the system in all weather
conditions.
PLog quickly pays for itself by eliminating redundancy in data collection, saving
time and money. Try it and you will see why geo-engineers worldwide are moving to
PLog for field data collection.
Benefits:
- Creates consistent and complete field logs: advanced PDA software ensures proper measurements are performed using the correct
terminology.
- Eliminates human errors: eliminate transcription, typographical, spelling and handwriting
errors using the advanced PDA software.
- Delivers near real-time data: Field personnel can synchronize wireless or wired
to get field logs to the office.
- Integrates seamlessly with gINT: generate professional final borehole logs within
minutes of drilling.
- Reduces final borehole log generation time and cost:
on a 10 m borehole, typical
personnel time savings are 1/2 hour of clerical time and 1/2 hour of engineering
time, which equates to $4-$8 AUD per metre of drilling.
- Utilises more portable, inexpensive, and
longer lasting
devices: PDAs are smaller,
less expensive, and have longer battery life than laptop computers. In addition,
they are more durable when used with a ruggedised PDA case.
