Our large corporate package, SoilVision Oracle/SQL provides all the database functionality of the Professional version as well as allowing many users to edit the soil database simultaneously. Data is stored on the Oracle or SQL Server database format to allow for optimum speed and data integrity in a high usage environment. This solution allows data entered by laboratory technicians to be instantly available to engineers or soil professionals.

The database is designed to provide a central data warehouse for soils data and allow data to be presented in multiple formats including borehole logs, GIS, finite element models, and (ASTM) laboratory test reports. SoilVision automates the entire process from the laboratory to the final reports.

The knowledge-based component can provide estimations of unsaturated soil properties to significantly reduce your laboratory costs. SoilVision provides over 20 journal published algorithms for the estimation of soil properties required for modeling various soil processes.


  • Multi-User (5 to 50 seats)
  • Data warehouse in Oracle or SQL Server format
  • Database of over 6000 soils included
  • Over 20 journal published estimation methods - estimate soil properties for seepage modeling!
  • Sophisticated windows interface
  • Mathematical fitting of soil functions
  • Professional reporting
  • Manage borehole, well, and project information
  • Export data to visualize in ArcView


  • SoilVision is written in Microsoft Access™ and is designed to run within Windows 95/98/NT/2000/XP
  • Optimum performance of the software requires sufficient RAM and fast hard drive access times due to the memory intensive nature of databases. The following hardware platform is suggested.
  • Pentium 333
  • 128 MB RAM
  • 60 MB Hard Disk Storage
  • CD ROM Drive

"SoilVision is a valuable program which assists in the design of soil cover systems for waste management faculties such as landfills, tailing deposits and waste rock dumps. In many cases the soil-water characteristic curves and hydraulic conductivity values for the potential soils which may be used for construction are not available during the early stages of design. We use SoilVision to estimate the properties on the basis of the grain-size distribution and other simple index properties. This allows preliminary analysis to proceed almost immediately. The optimum soils may be selected for the more detailed and time-consuming testing. In many cases it is possible to provide a complete design while testing only a limited number of samples to confirm soil properties."
