The Association of Geotechnical and Geoenvironmental Specialists (AGS) Data Format focuses on standardizing electronic data transfer related to engineering investigations, construction, and laboratory testing. EQuIS Link supports the AGS 4 format file as a data source. To properly import the AGS Data Format Version 4 into EQuIS, the AGS Data Format file must follow the transfer file format rules outlined by AGS (https://www.ags.org.uk/).

 

An example AGS 4 Link mapping file (AGS4_Geotechnical_v2.link) is provided in the Products\EQuIS Geotech folder on the Downloads Dashboard on the EarthSoft Community Center (ECC). The AGS4_Geotechnical_v2.link Mapping Project Template file maps a selection of the Groups in the AGS Version 4.0.4 format to the EQuIS Geotechnical_v2 format (Geotechnical_v2.zip). Detailed descriptions of the mappings are provided in the Defined_Mappings_AGS4_Geotechnical_v2.xlsx file, also available for download from the ECC. The example AGS4_Geotechnical_v2.link file can be modified as needed by clients. Please see the EQuIS Link documentation for details or contact EarthSoft Support for additional assistance.

 

The Geotechnical Export - AGS 4 report exports data from EQuIS and outputs it using the AGS formatting rules.
