AST Environmental uses advanced 3D modeling to transform complex subsurface data into clear, actionable visuals that guide remediation design and decision-making. By integrating geological, hydrogeological, and contaminant concentration data in both sail and groundwater collected during a Remedial Design Characterization, we create models that show contaminant distribution in three dimensions.

Turning Data into Insight

A Quantitative High-Resolution Conceptual Site Model is the foundation of every 3D model. Using soil and groundwater sampling results, geophysical survey data, and aquifer characterization, our modeling team develops accurate visualizations that:

  • Identify contaminant mass distribution in both source and plume areas
  • Reveal vertical and lateral contaminant gradients
  • Highlight transmissive zones and geologic heterogeneity affecting transport
  • Support targeted In-Situ Remediation and amendment delivery planning

Applications for 3D Modeling

Our 3D models are valuable tools for:

Stakeholder Communication and Regulatory Confidence

3D models make it easier for project teams, property owners, and regulatory agencies to visualize site conditions and understand the remediation strategy. This transparency helps align expectations, streamline approvals, and build confidence in the proposed approach.

Supporting Cost-Effective, Surgical Remediation

By clearly showing where contamination is concentrated, our 3D modeling ensures that treatment is applied exactly where it is needed—reducing waste, optimizing reagent use, and accelerating site closure. Whether for a small targeted cleanup or a large-scale Brownfield Remediation project, 3D modeling enhances planning, communication, and execution.
