Interface design accommodates the specialized features and analysis capabilities of each model while maintaining a consistent look and feel for each data set.
Easy-To-Use
The familiar design and functionality of the interface makes it extremely easy to learn and facilitates rapid model development using any of the available models.
New Project Wizard
Guides you through the process of setting up a model data set for any of the available programs.
Project Management
The project-based data management system that liberates the user from handling of numerous files for separate projects.
Input Data
The Project Data Tree allows you to quickly view and modify the profile data structure for each model profile, or to easily duplicate the model data files for performing sensitivity analyses.
Graphical Display
The profile display shows the geometry, dimensions, layer structure and stratigraphy of the model profile.
Database Links
A customizable database of soil and chemical parameters is linked to the various input forms for automatic entry of selected property values.
SWS Weather Generator
The built-in Weather Generator generates up to 100 years of statistically reliable weather data to use as input for either SESOIL or Visual HELP.
Seamless Integration
Create the model profile(s), run the simulation(s), visualize the results, and create the report documents; all in the same graphical modeling environment.
Presentation of Results
The UnSat Suite comes with a powerful graphical component for visualizing the simulation results for any of the models.
Automatic Report Generator
Create a rich text document with tabulated input data, profile graphics, and a display of results.
