Platform Capabilities

Scientific rigor meets lab automation

Every feature is designed around real geotechnical research workflows — from raw sensor ingestion to peer-reviewed calculations and publication-ready outputs.

Secure, Role-Based Access

JWT-based authentication with Argon2 password hashing and role-based permissions for testers, reviewers, approvers, and admins. Every action is logged in a complete, tamper-evident audit trail.

End-to-End Test Management

Track every test from creation through QA stages to final release. Automated test code generation, role-based QA workflow, and complete audit trail.

Automated Calculations

ASTM and BS-compliant scientific calculations for all supported test types. Peer-reviewed calculation modules with full traceability eliminate manual errors and ensure reproducibility.

Professional PDF Reports

Publication-quality test reports with stress paths, consolidation curves, specimen properties, and Mohr circles. Scientific rigor with complete calculation transparency and methodology documentation.

AGS 4 Data Exchange

Export all test results in AGS 4 format with custom field support. Industry-standard data delivery for seamless project handover to clients.

Jupyter Analysis Integration

Built-in Jupyter Lab for advanced scientific analysis. Researchers can investigate raw data, validate calculation methodologies, and build reproducible notebooks with direct database access.

AI-Powered Insights

Meet Gio — your lab's AI analyst, built in

Gio is GQMLab's built-in AI analyst, with direct read-only access to your live lab data. Ask questions in plain English and get real answers back, grounded in your own test results — not a generic chatbot bolted on the side.

  • Natural-language queries. Ask about test status, project progress, or lab performance and get instant answers straight from your live database.
  • Instant charts & tables. Results come back as bar, line, or pie charts and formatted tables — not walls of raw text.
  • Report-aware answers. Gio knows every test type's tables, plots, and calculation formulas, complete with standard references.
  • Proactive health checks. Flags stale drafts, overdue reviews, and inactive projects before they become a bottleneck.
  • Guided issue reporting. Describe a problem conversationally and Gio drafts a structured, developer-ready bug report — checking for duplicates first.

Real Lab Data

See the precision for yourself

These are real screens from a live bender element test — not mockups. Explore the raw signal, then zoom in to pick shear-wave arrivals and get an instant velocity calculation.

1

Explore & filter every waveform

Toggle Source, Received, Rx Raw, and Filtered traces, apply signal processing, and compare shots side by side.

2

Pick arrivals, get instant velocity

Zoom into the waveform, pick the source and received arrival points, and GQMLab calculates ΔT and shear-wave velocity immediately — no spreadsheet required.

Quality Assurance

Scientific integrity from test to release

GQMLab enforces a structured, role-based scientific review process — every test undergoes rigorous validation and peer review before results are released.

1

Data Upload & Processing

Raw sensor data uploaded directly from GDS and other scientific equipment. Automatic stage detection, parsing, and standards-compliant calculation with full methodology traceability.

2

Researcher Review

Assigned researcher validates data quality, verifies calculation methodology, and marks the test as ready for peer review.

3

Scientific Review & Approval

Reviewer and approver sign off through a two-stage peer review process with full audit log of actions, comments, and methodology validation.

4

Final QA & Publication

Final quality check triggers automatic PDF, AGS, and data export generation. Released tests are archived with complete provenance and calculation audit trail.
