| United
States Environmental Protection Agency, 1994 Superfund Innovative Technology Evaluation
"Innovative tools such as GIS\Key™ can play as important a role in the cost effective assessment and cleanup of our nations hazardous waste sites as the remediation techniques selected..." "...We suggest that this software be considered for site assessment and data management." "...The system's user-friendly design, compatibility with 386 and 486 personal computers... one-time data entry requirements, built-in data quality checks contributed to the positive assessment of the software's performance."
After evaluating real projects, the EPA concluded that GIS\Key™ reduces data management costs by up to 50%, while significantly improving data quality. The EPA evaluation of GIS\Key™ occurred in 1993-1994. GIS\Solutions has made numerous enhancements to GIS\Key™ since the time of the evaluation. We currently recommend that users implement GIS\Key™ on a 486 or Pentium PC. GIS\Key™ currently supports Windows 95, 98 and NT. A Tech Trends article, EPA publication EPA 542-N-94-006, August 1994, summarized the findings of the EPA. The Innovative Technology Evaluation Report (Document No. EPA/540/R-94/505) and a Site Technology Capsule (Document No. EPA/540/SR-94/505) describe detailed results of the evaluation.
