Making the Most of Your Subsurface Data with GOSEP

GOSEP (Georeferenced Oregon Soil Engineering Properties) is a statewide geographic database of geotechnical investigations and other subsurface penetrations. It is point-and-click queryable and facilitates interpolation of soil properties in regions of sparse subsurface data. The database contains over 6,000 boreholes and other subsurface penetrations (e.g., CPT) and is fully integrated with DOGAMI lidar data, USDA textural data, USGS geology layers and site classes, topography, and 400,000 OWRD water wells. We will discuss the use of GOSEP as a standalone tool and as a means to leverage your own proprietary data.
