PLAXIS 2D
PLAXIS 2D is a powerful and user-friendly finite-element package intended for 2D analysis of deformation and stability in geotechnical engineering and rock mechanics. PLAXIS is used worldwide by top engineering companies and institutions in the civil and geotechnical engineering industry. Applications range from excavations, embankments, and foundations to tunneling, mining, and reservoir geomechanics. PLAXIS is equipped with a broad range of advanced features to model a diverse range of geotechnical problems, all from within a single integrated software package.
ArcGIS Geostatistical Analyst
ArcGIS Geostatistical Analyst is an ArcGIS Pro, ArcMap, and ArcGIS Enterprise extension. It is not always possible or practical to predict and model spatial phenomena through real-world observations. ArcGIS Geostatistical Analyst includes spatial interpolation methods that let you generate optimal surfaces from sample data and evaluate predictions for better decision-making. This solution is especially helpful for atmospheric data analysis, petroleum and mining exploration, environmental analysis, precision agriculture, and fish and wildlife studies.
