What is OpenGround Portal?
OpenGround Portal is a comprehensive, web-native gateway for end-to-end geotechnical data management. Far beyond a simple data editing tool, it provides a performant, secure environment that allows you to collect, report, manage, visualize, analyze, and access your ground investigation workflows directly from your browser. It serves as the primary web interface to the broader OpenGround cloud-based geotechnical information platform.

- Seamless Interoperability: Easily import and export geotechnical data using standard industry formats like CSV, AGS, and gINT (import only).
