Advantages of SoilVision

• Theoretical estimation of unsaturated soil properties. Over 20 theoretical and statistical methods are included for the prediction of soil-water characteristic curves and unsaturated hydraulic conductivity curves based on grain-size and other data. Estimation methods are highly valuable for the modeling of seepage through the vadose zone.
• Pre-existing laboratory database of over 6000 soils. Over 95% of these soils have a laboratory measured soil-water characteristic curve. Laboratory data also exists for over 2500 saturated hydraulic conductivities and over 600 unsaturated hydraulic conductivity curves.
• Automatic calculation of grain-size statistics (graphic mean, graphic skewness, Kurtosis, graphic standard deviation, etc.)
• Professional reporting allows selection and reporting of multiple soils on the same report.
• Geostatistics module allows quick statistical analysis of your laboratory data.
• Only commercial database application in the world capable of managing unsaturated soils information.
• Automatic soil texture classification by the USDA or USCS (ASTM) methods.
• Mathematical fits of soil property functions allows soils in certain "bands" to be selected.
• Free form Search Wizard allows searching of the database based on almost any criteria.
• Mathematical model provides input for seepage and groundwater finite element and finite difference models.
