GeoSift is a platform that consolidates a municipality’s scattered subsurface data—drill logs, reports, GIS layers, PDFs, and scanned images—into a single searchable knowledge base.

Problem
Municipalities often store decades of underground data—drill logs, reports, GIS layers—in disparate formats and locations. Each new infrastructure project requires staff to manually locate, read, and reconcile these scattered documents, leading to duplicated effort, delayed decisions, and inconsistent interpretations of the sub‑surface.
Solution
GeoSift consolidates all municipal subsurface information into a single, searchable knowledge base. The platform automatically ingests PDFs, scanned images, CSV/XLSX files, and GIS layers, then normalizes units, extracts key attributes, and georeferences observations to the municipality’s spatial reference. Indexed data can be queried instantly by project, area, lithology, or test type, providing a cumulative, up‑to‑date view of the underground without recreating analyses for each project. Integrated natively with ArcGIS, QGIS, BIM tools, and geotechnical calculators, GeoSift delivers the structured data directly into existing municipal workflows, enabling technical teams and decision‑makers to share a common, reliable understanding of the sub‑surface.
Target Audience
Primary customers are municipal engineering departments, public works agencies, and geotechnical teams that manage underground infrastructure planning and maintenance.
Features
- Automated bulk import of PDFs, scanned images, drill logs, CSV/XLSX, AGS and other GIS formats
- Intelligent digitization that standardizes units, structures heterogeneous content, and extracts key geotechnical parameters
- Precise georeferencing of boreholes and observations with automatic correction of coordinate errors
- Dynamic classification and tagging by project, zone, lithology, date, and test type for instant search across the entire archive
- Fine‑grained access controls, audit logging, and versioning to meet municipal data‑governance requirements
- Seamless interoperability with ArcGIS, QGIS, BIM platforms, and internal geotechnical calculators via native integrations and export options (GeoPackage, CSV, etc.)
