Acquisition Features
The OST Software was designed with field use in mind
- Modern look and feel means you don't look like you are using old technology
- Displays current Waveform, Signal, Conductivity, and Push Rate in real-time
- Emulation mode for lab studies
- The buttons and options you use in the field are large and prominent, the rest get out of your way
- The software accepts commands from the Remote LCD Display, such as start push and end push
- Auto-file numbering: start with file UVOST-01 and the software will suggest UVOST-02 next log
- Software handles any rod length or window offset
- Automatically handles GPS communication (using the GGA standard)
- Able to recover from power loss and having to restart mid-hole
Log Output
- Use the software to highlight up to five callout waveforms, which may be an average of a depth range
- Callouts automatically include signal and depth, may manually add a caption
- All the pertinent info along the bottom of the log
- Auto or manual control of scaling
- Option to include signal reference line on log
- Both portrait and landscape mode supported along with standard letter size or 11x17
- Create bare logs without the callouts and info for use in fence diagrams (with or without axis, may even select a black background)
- Import any depth vs. signal data for side-by-side viewing
- PDF output (including multipage)
- Butterfly plots (of duplicate logs)
- Pseudo fence diagrams with multiple plots next to each other
- Water table reference line
Batch File Handling
- Within seconds you can create log images for an entire site with the same scaling, no need to open each file individually
- Create a site summary text file with a few clicks, includes: file name, coordinates, max signal, final depth, etc.
- Determine total footage pushed across one site or multiple sites with ease
- GPS import
Advanced Data Analysis Features
- Lifetime fitting
- Depth interval averaging
- Background (baseline) correction
- Custom signal legend based on lab results
