Engineering Manual No. 49: Conducting Geological Surveys with the GEO5 Data Collector Mobile App


This forty-ninth manual in the GEO5 engineering series provides a detailed guide on conducting geological surveys using the GEO5 Data Collector mobile app. The manual covers the entire process, from preparing survey data in the GEO5 Stratigraphy program to uploading it to the mobile app, performing the survey in the field, and processing the results back in the office. Available for download, this manual is essential for geotechnical engineers who need to efficiently manage field data collection and integration using mobile technology.

Learning Objective:

The goal of this manual is to teach users how to conduct geological surveys using the GEO5 Data Collector mobile app, including data preparation, on-site data collection, and processing the results back in the GEO5 Stratigraphy program. Users will learn how to set up a survey, collect field data using GPS coordinates, and manage data in both mobile and desktop environments, ensuring accurate and efficient geological documentation.

Assignment Description:

In this assignment, users are tasked with preparing a geological survey in the GEO5 Stratigraphy program, exporting the data to the GEO5 Data Collector mobile app, and performing the survey on-site. The process includes defining the construction site, entering borehole and point of interest data, exporting it to the mobile app, and using the app to collect geological data in the field. After completing the survey, users will import the data back into the Stratigraphy program for further analysis and reporting.

Outcome:

Upon completing this assignment, users will be able to effectively conduct geological surveys using the GEO5 Data Collector mobile app. They will gain practical experience in preparing survey data, collecting field data on-site, and processing the results in the office, ensuring that their geological surveys are accurately documented and efficiently managed.

Conclusions:

The manual concludes that the integration of the GEO5 Data Collector mobile app with the GEO5 Stratigraphy program significantly enhances the efficiency and accuracy of geological surveys. By following the steps outlined in the manual, users can streamline the process of data collection, reduce errors, and ensure that all relevant information is captured and easily accessible for further analysis.
