Geotechnical Data Management Initiatives at Caltrans

Turner, Loren L. / Hannenian, Craig / Mahnke, Steve

The California Department of Transportation (Caltrans) is taking advantage of and adopting innovative technologies to improve the management of its growing investment in geotechnical data. The GeoResearch Group (GRG) and the Geotechnical Data Management Committee (GDMC) are working to develop a comprehensive data management strategy for borehole, lab test, and insitu test data. Activities include the development of standardized data models and reporting formats for geotechnical information, standardization of software tools, evaluation of data collection technologies, and optimization of workflow practices. Caltrans' participation in international initiatives through COSMOS/PEER-LL and FHWA is helping to establish a global model for data interchange.
