Merging Multiple Existing Geotechnical Databases Phase II

Multiple data sources of geotechnical information reside in KYTC’s central office, district office, and at KTC and the Kentucky Geological Survey (KGS). There are also undocumented sources of geotechnical data at district offices in individual employee computer files, which may soon become unavailable as those individuals retire. To move this information into a cohesive database, KTC, KYTC, and KGS will collaborate to populate a preexisting geotechnical database that is currently available as an ArcView product. This will give KYTC access to existing geotechnical field data that can be beneficial when preforming future geotechnical site investigations.
