Leapfrog Works v2025.2.1: Gain Subsurface Insight with Dynamic 3D Geological Modeling for Civil and Environmental Projects  

Leapfrog Works helps you visualize and understand data to communicate risks with stakeholders at all technical levels and make better decisions for civil engineering and environmental projects.  

 1. Save Analysis Time  

- Streamlined workflows transform how you view and process data.  

- Rapidly generate cross-sections integrated with engineering designs.  

- Efficiently create and update geological models—dynamic updates to models and outputs (e.g., cross-sections) as new data arrives, eliminating manual rework.  

- 3D subsurface modeling delivers unmatched precision in understanding ground conditions, enabling early risk identification and challenge mitigation throughout the project lifecycle.  

---

 2. Communicate with Clarity  

- Interpret complex subsurface data intuitively through 3D visualization.  

- Leverage highly visual models to improve ground condition interpretations.  

- Share risks effectively using free tools like Seequent View and Leapfrog Viewer, or export high-quality images/sections for reports and presentations.  

---

 3. Collaborate Across Teams  

- Support for industry-standard ground investigation data formats.  

- Integrate geological models with engineering designs, BIM workflows, and groundwater flow models for a holistic project view.  

- Embed geologists in critical decision-making by linking Geological Information Models (GIM) with Building Information Models (BIM).

 Core Features of Leapfrog Works  

 Dynamic 3D Modeling  

- Easily replicate and build multiple models to test hypotheses, updating them dynamically with new data.  

- Automatically incorporate new borehole data while preserving validated parameters.  

- Create static models for benchmarking, saving time on setup and focusing on interpretation.  

 Ground Type Classification  

- Build 3D geological/numerical models from diverse data: boreholes, structures, GIS, grids, maps, points, polylines, and historical sections.  

- Apply multiple modeling methods with intuitive controls.  

- Combine rock mass ratings, soil properties, or contaminant concentrations with geological zones for composite ground classification.  

 Collaboration & Sharing  

- Share cross-sections, images, videos, interactive 3D scenes, and BIM/CAD outputs to enhance productivity and understanding.  

- Use Central for seamless project visualization and workflow coordination, bridging technical and non-technical audiences.  

 Interoperability  

- Connect directly to Bentley OpenGround Cloud for a unified geotechnical data source.  

- Import/export data to specialized software (e.g., Esri geodatabases, shapefiles, DXF, DWG).  

- Export in industry-standard BIM formats for direct integration into BIM environments.  

 Engineering Integration  

- Process engineering data directly within geological contexts—no delays from CAD departments.  

- Visualize tunnels, earthworks, bridges, dams, and foundations in geological settings.  

- Import alignments and create profiles to inform designs and calculate excavation volumes.  

 Environmental Insights  

- Build foundational models for geology and groundwater flow simulations.  

- Assess contaminant plumes or saltwater intrusion by integrating geochemical or geophysical data.  

- Model directly from AGS/gINT projects and visualize plumes/wedges in 3D, then link to hydrogeological flow models.  

 Cross-Section Generation  

- Create sections in minutes, not hours, from any site location or perspective.  

- Dynamically update sections as models evolve, and customize outputs for reports/CAD/geotechnical analysis.  

- Import historical plots and maps to contextualize interpretations.  

 Hydrogeology Extension  

- Integrate with MODFLOW and FEFLOW to reduce hydrological risks.  

- Use lithological models as foundations for flow simulations and visualize results in 3D.  

- Share models freely via Leapfrog Viewer or Seequent Viewer.  

 Contaminants Extension  

- Directly import contaminant data into 3D geological models.  

- Characterize, visualize, and create auditable estimates of contaminant mass/location in soil and groundwater.
