Bentley’s OpenGround Cloud Platform: Increase the Value of your Geotechnical Data Featured

OpenGround Cloud, Bentley's secure enterprise cloud collaboration platform for geotechnical data management, is capable of empowering teams with access to current and historical project data in a dynamic cloud-based environment.

Nowadays, there is an urgent need for accessible and reliable geotechnical data. Better decision-making requires better data, and better data require effective information management.

OpenGround Cloud offers a complete solution for planning, data entry, borehole log production, lab data management, reporting, visualization and more. Improving collaboration for better, data-informed decisions among all contributors to a project, can significantly increase the value of your geotechnical data.

Improve Geotechnical Data Reliability

The platform offers access to federated data, at your fingertips, across connected applications, and many devices, improves reliability and project efficiency. Reliable and accessible data in one source of truth is what OpenGround Cloud offers for engineering projects with geotechnical data. “From [a] risk management perspective, we are now able to more easily identify (the) gaps in data, to highlight risk items and, if required, assist in the planning of targeted ground investigations.”– Richard O’Brien, Principal Process Engineer, Atkins, stated.

Increase Collaboration with Federated Data

According to Scott Devoe, Director, Geotechnical Information Management, "a long-sought improvement for geotechnical and geological companies is the maintenance of a single federated data repository for multiple data sources on all ground investigation projects which is now closer than ever before with OpenGround Cloud." Team members are allowed to access data using customizable role-based permissions while the application ensures that everyone has the correct access rights to the most up-to-date version of data being used. It eliminates the need to retain copies or email data to teams.

Open Ground Cloud allows teams to collaborate whether they are collecting data in the field, reporting, managing, or integrating data with their design or analysis software. The platform has several connected apps which provide team members with the tools they need in a modern and intuitive-to-use environment
