From page 1...
... VISUALIZATION OF GEOTECHNICAL DATA FOR HAZARD MITIGATION AND DISASTER RESPONSE Visualization of geotechnical data can be an extremely valuable technique for mitigating hazards and responding to the consequences of disasters and extreme events. Geotechnical data visualization (GDV)
From page 2...
... 2 Although the hazards and potential disasters and extreme events may vary from state to state, and even region to region, the effective use of GDV tools and methods in one location can be expected to apply to a range of conditions, events, and objectives in another location. A goal of this study was to identify the GDV approaches that are most effective for hazard mitigation and disaster response and recovery.
