At the heart of Project Portal® is its ability to be customizable. Features can be turned on or off and adjusted on a per project and per user basis to meet the specific needs of a given project. Project Portal® requires no additional software or third-party web-based licenses, only a modern web browser.

Purpose-Built

Sanborn Head adapted Project Portal® to meet the specific data needs of landfill operators. With Project Portal®, users can collect, store, report, and analyze all environmental data for either one site or a portfolio of sites in one centralized and secure location. Project Portal® is robust enough to manage streams of high-frequency data fed by telemetry, including flow meters, flares, and leachate control systems. Users can be given access to view and analyze analytical and field environmental data, such as monitoring real-time data against known limits.

Users are provided with a query interface which allows them to refine their landfill data by sample location, parameter, date, and medium. Users can then view and further analyze their results in a dynamic online results table. Users can then either graph, map (with the embedded Map Module), or export the data into one of many formats including Microsoft Access® or Excel®, Google Earth®, Esri® Shapefile, EarthSoft EQuIS® “4 File”.

Ease-of-Use

Sanborn Head has customized Project Portal® to address landfill management needs. With Project Portal®, landfill operators have access to dozens of optimized landfill management reports which can be further customized to meet the specifics of a landfill or a portfolio of sites. Reports are pre-designed to manage NSPS workflow and compliance requirements and can be configured to send data via email on a nightly, weekly, or monthly schedule. Workflows can be easily customized to accommodate a variety of data and can include such features as wellfield NSPS/NESHAP regulatory compliance, surface emission monitoring, telemetry monitoring and alarms, and the visual expression of data such as analyte levels.

Security

As a software-as-a-service offering, Project Portal is ready whenever you are. Project Portal® is hosted in an Amazon Web Services (AWS) infrastructure with SOC 2 Type II Security and ISO 27001 certifications. Project Portal® data are encrypted in transit and at rest, and all data and documents are routinely backed up. The server infrastructure includes highly available architecture at the application level and leverages multi-availability zones at the database level ensuring reliable access to the data. At any point in the future, the database and documents can be safely and securely exported from Project Portal® to a non-proprietary format and provided to you.
