 +HgIS is an <nowiki>EDMS</nowiki> – Environmental Data Management Software. Such software is being developed by many companies:

 +
 +Major <nowiki>EDMS</nowiki> produced by those companies are:
 +  * [[https://earthsoft.com/|EQuIS]] from EarthSoft.
 +  * [[https://www.kisters.net/wiski/|WISKI]] and other solutions from [[https://www.kisters.eu/|Kisters]] – Germany.
 +  * GW-Base from [[https://www.ribeka.com/en/|ribeka]] – Germany.
 +  * [[https://www.esdat.net/|ESdat]] – Australia.
 +  * [[https://endar.tetratech.com/webapp/About|EnDAR]] from Tetra Tech integrates Power BI or Tableau.
 +  * SiteFX from [[https://www.earthfx.com/|EarthFX]] – USA. Has public domain data model, not perfectly documented. MS Access as the runtime environment.
 +  * [[https://geotech.com/products/envirodata|EnviroData]] from Geotech Computer Systems, USA. Based on MS Access.
 +  * [[https://www.seequent.com/products-solutions/geosoft-oasis-montaj/|Oasis-montaj]] Seequent Central and other from Seequent (former GeoSoft).
 +  * [[https://www.waterloohydrogeologic.com/products/hydro-geoanalyst/|Hydro GeoAnalyst]] from Waterloo Hydrogeologic.
 +  * [[https://www.geodin.com/english/software/|GeODin (Fugro)]]
 +  * [[https://www.acquire.com.au/products/gim-suite/|GIM Suite]] (acQuire)
 +  * [[https://www.gaea.ca/|EDMS]] (GAEA)
 +  * [[https://qnopy.com/|QNOPY]]
 +
 +Other EDMS are: [[https://www.kisters.net/hydstra/|Hydstra (Kisters)]], [[https://www.ddmsinc.com/project-portal/about-project-portal/|Project Portal]] (ddms), [[http://www.epiphiny.com|EPIPHINY]] (Summit Envirosolutions), Virtual Observatory and Ecological Informatics System ([[git>yogo/VOEIS|VOEIS]]), [[https://erams.com/catena/|eRAMS]] (Colorado State University), [[https://www.hydrogeolog.cz|eSymon]], [[https://hplus.ore.fr/en/|H+]] (Réseau National de Sites Hydrogéologiques), [[https://www.claire.co.uk/projects-and-initiatives/gwsdat|GWSDAT]] [[r>https://github.com/WayneGitShell/GWSDAT|(Shiny)]] (Wayne Jones), MIKE INFO – former IMS – Information Management System (DHI), DataSight (Seveno), [[https://ehsdata.com/monitorpro/features/|MonitorPro]] (EHS Data), [[https://www.waterlabs.eu/en/products/datalab|DATALAB]] (Waterlabs), Geological Data Management Software ([[https://www.dataminesoftware.com|Datamine]]), [[https://www.3ds.com/products-services/geovia/products/gems/|GEMS]] (GEOVIA), Enterprise Integration ([[https://www.minerp.com/|MineRP]]), [[http://www.wrdb.com/|Water Resources Database]], [[https://www.eqwinsoftware.com/|EQWin]] (EQWin® Software Inc.), [[http://www.pointstar.com/ChemPoint/default.aspx|ChemPoint]] (Starpoint Software) and [[https://aquaticinformatics.com/products/aquarius-environmental-water-data-management/|AQUARIUS]] (Aquatic Informatics). Some of those do not have geology. gdBase from [[cz>http://www.gdsoftware.cz|GD Software]] is mostly used in the Czech Republic.
 +
 +Those tools usually have an excellent graphical user interface and can import dozens of data exchange formats. But they are not flexible enough to create new data imports because they do not contain an easy-to-use highly adaptable ETL (extract, transform and load) module. Some existing EDMS contain some reporting engine (e.g., Tableau, SSRS, Telerik, or Crystal Reports) or even Power BI to create high-quality reports. Without an ETL module, they cannot efficiently combine data operations (e.g. aggregation), analyses, and simple visualization (reporting).
 +
 +HgIS overcomes those shortcomings. Its main competitive advantages are: HgIS is easily extensible (automated data import of new formats) and focused on data analysis and modeling.
