Visual PFAS™ Overview

software-pic

Visual PFAS™ provides a simple and easy-to-use interface for creating radial diagram and stacked bar maps, which are ideal for supporting PFAS site characterization, remediation monitoring, and forensic assessments. 

Visual PFAS™ enables you to save time, improve your conceptual site model, and more effectively communicate the results of PFAS sampling and remediation with key stakeholders.

Visual PFAS™ Basemaps

  • Import map layers in *.shp, *.dxf, *.bln format
  • Easily add, edit, and delete map layers: line colors, fill, line weights and style
  • Plot all or a select group of monitoring well locations
  • Optional coordinate axes and scale bar styles
  • Plot one or more radial diagram and stacked bar maps with the basemap underlay
  • Create multiple basemaps for different focus areas at a site

Visual PFAS™ Project Database

  • Import project database files in *.csv format
  • Locations and location group lists
  • Chemical properties, cleanup criteria, and group lists
  • Monitoring events list
  • Chemical analytical results
  • Automatic concentration unit conversions
  • Reference series lists and analytical results (e.g., source or background)

Visual PFAS™ Radial Diagrams

  • Select no. of axes and assign chemicals, concentration units, log or arithmetic scale
  • Select monitoring events and reference series
  • Select well or boring locations
  • Plot concentrations or PFAS ratios
  • Edit series line and fill properties
  • Add exceedance and non-detect symbols
  • Easily offset radial diagrams to avoid overlap at adjacent wells on a site basemap

Visual PFAS™ Stacked Bar Maps

  • Select chemicals, monitoring event, and monitoring well locations for stacked bars
  • Add stacked bars as a layer to site basemap
  • Optical tick marks to estimate chemical proportions at each monitoring well
  • User-specified chemical sequence and colors
  • Ideal for forensic fingerprinting to differentiate PFAS sources, and for TOP assay visualization
