A Connected Logging Workflow
Move Beyond Manual Drafting and Disconnected Records
Professional presentation is only one part of a reliable borehole or well log. The underlying data must also be structured, complete and internally consistent.
- Repeated entry and manual formatting across projects
- Different terminology, symbols and layouts between users
- Field records separated from the office database
- Data-quality problems discovered late in review
- Final PDFs disconnected from reusable project data
WinLoG connects the workflow: templates, structured data, field exchange, validation, professional logs and documented QA/QC results.
Product Roles
WinLoG, Field Assistant and GaeaSynergy
Each product contributes a different part of the workflow. Availability depends on the products and modules included in the license.
| Capability | WinLoG | WinLoG Field Assistant | GaeaSynergy |
|---|---|---|---|
| Primary role | Desktop logging, templates, validation and reports | Android field data collection and field logs | Integrated project analysis and visualization platform |
| Borehole and well logs | Create, edit, validate and report | Collect data and produce supported field output | Uses WinLoG data within shared projects where licensed |
| Offline field work | Desktop workflow | Designed for offline Android use | Office project environment |
| Template workflow | Design and manage templates | Uses templates prepared for field collection | Provides wider project context |
| Validation & QA/QC | Released and available now | Field validation depends on supported workflow | Uses validated WinLoG information in the project |
| Cross-sections, maps and 3D | Not a standalone WinLoG function | Not a Field Assistant function | Available through applicable GaeaSynergy capabilities and modules |
| Dashboards | Product-specific status and results where available | Not the primary dashboard environment | Main platform and project dashboard context |
Core Capabilities
From Structured Records to Professional Deliverables
WinLoG is designed for practical logging, repeatable presentation and defensible data review.
Template-Driven Logs
Configure headers, footers, columns, scales, symbols, graphs and construction details for reusable formats.
Structured Subsurface Data
Store intervals, samples, measurements, water levels, laboratory results and graphical records by depth.
Released Validation & QA/QC
Run domain, completeness and cross-dataset rules with detailed, depth-linked findings and reports.
Field-to-Office Exchange
Use WinLoG Field Assistant and structured EDI files to reduce repeated transcription.
Professional Output
Generate consistent borehole, well, core and specialized logs for project delivery.
Data Import and Export
Exchange structured records through supported XML, EDI and other applicable formats.
Templates and Data TypesBrowse Supported Data Types
Build Logs Around the Data Your Project Requires
WinLoG templates can combine descriptive, numeric, graphical, sample, construction and photographic data in one depth-based presentation.
DESCRIPTIONS
Lithology and Intervals
Materials, stratigraphy, classifications, structures, alteration, remarks and annotations.
MEASUREMENTS
Samples and Test Data
SPT, recovery, RQD, water content, laboratory results, drilling and geophysical curves.
WELLS
Construction and Water
Screens, casings, seals, filter packs, water levels and monitoring information.
VISUAL RECORDS
Graphs, Symbols and Photos
Engineering graphs, geological symbols, core photographs and specialized display columns.
Released — Available Now
Automated Validation and Borehole QA/QC
WinLoG checks individual values and relationships between related datasets, then identifies the exact fields and depth intervals requiring correction or professional review.
- Domain-specific, completeness and cross-dataset rules
- Errors, warnings and informational findings
- Validation status, completeness, quality and confidence
- Rule descriptions, actual values and affected depth intervals
- Detailed validation reports retained with project deliverables
Validate as You Work
Find missing, invalid and inconsistent information before final issue.
Cross-Check Evidence
Compare lithology, samples, laboratory results, groundwater and construction.
Prioritize Review
Use severity and quality metrics to focus attention where it is needed.
Document Results
Create a validation report that explains each finding and its context.

Connected Process
Capture, Validate and Report
Move from standardized field records to reviewed data and professional deliverables.
1
Capture
Record consistent geological, geotechnical, environmental and well information in the office or with Field Assistant.
2
Validate
Run released automated QA/QC rules, review findings and correct or explain the identified conditions.
3
Report
Generate professional borehole or well logs together with a detailed validation report.
Legacy Workflow Review
Evaluate WinLoG as a Structured Logging Alternative
Organizations reviewing alternatives to legacy gINT and other desktop logging workflows can compare WinLoG using representative databases, templates and deliverables.
Evaluate the Complete Workflow
- Project and borehole data structure
- Template layouts, symbols and graph columns
- Field collection and EDI exchange
- Validation rules and report requirements
- Import, export and historical-data needs
- Standalone or GaeaSynergy deployment
Use Stable, Project-Specific Criteria
Product lifecycle statements can change. Compare the software using current vendor information and your own requirements rather than relying on a single support date or generalized competitor claim.
Before You Decide
Evaluate WinLoG with Representative Projects
Use actual templates and data requirements rather than judging the product from a single sample log.
- Applications, drilling methods and log types
- Required headers, footers, columns, scales and symbols
- Geological, geotechnical, environmental and well data types
- Validation rules, findings and report expectations
- Field Assistant devices and offline workflow
- Import, export and legacy project requirements
- Standalone, network and GaeaSynergy deployment
- Training, maintenance and technical support
Recommended Evaluation Path
- Review WinLoG features and data types.
- Choose examples from your application area.
- Review the released validation workflow.
- Watch the desktop and Field Assistant demonstrations.
- Test representative templates and logs.
- Confirm licensing, migration and integration needs.
