Data integrity, ground to cloud
Look below the surface in your infrastructure digital twin to enable informed decision-making, timely adjustments, and safer solutions.
What is openground?
OpenGround is a secure, enterprise extensible platform solution for geotechnical information management. Improve collaboration among all contributors who utilize subsurface digital context for timely data-informed decisions on infrastructure digital twins. It allows you to identify site constraints early, understand financial implications, and produce plans you are proud to offer. With OpenGround, you can leverage a fully managed and scalable cloud platform to meet security and compliance requirements with active monitoring, automated backups, and robust disaster recovery. OpenGround is the foundation for your digital twin that leverages the value of your geotechnical data.

User QuoteS
“The data manager for this project has described the system as ‘magic’ as the teams are now connected, and the geotechnical information ‘magically’ appears on their system."
— Emma Leivers, Engineering Technical Manager, Geotechnical Engineering Ltd.
“OpenGround improved workflow for all members of the team. The various add-ins are faster within the cloud version of the database, which is useful when dealing with large datasets such as CPT data.”
— Cedric Allenou, Ground Engineering Lead, Lower Thames Crossing
