Exporting DIGGS Data

Previous pageReturn to chapter overviewNext page

The DIGGS (Data Interchange for Geotechnical and Geoenvironmental Specialists) project involves the development of a GML (XML-based) geospatial standard for the transfer of geotechnical and geoenvironmental data within an organization or between multiple organizations. DIGGS is provided by ASCE's Geo-Institute and more information can be found on their website at:

Multiple borings/wells can be exported to a single DIGGS format file. To export borehole data to a DIGGS format file, open a project and select File > Export > DIGGS Data.  The specify file form below will be displayed.
