Getting Started with Datgel View

Getting started with Datgel View. What happens between "interested" and "live."

The path from "interested" to "live"

  3. Choose self-host or managed. Run Datgel View on your own infrastructure, or let us run it for you on Azure.
    Hosting options »
  4. Add an onboarding tier if you want help. Three onboarding levels — from "deploy and configure" to "complete greenfield setup with Azure VM, SQL Server and gINT."
    See onboarding options »

What we'll need from you

  • gINT data in SQL Server. If you're still on Microsoft Access, our Migration onboarding tier handles the upsize.
  • Network access to the SQL Server from wherever Datgel View runs (your server, our managed Azure, or your own Azure subscription).
  • Identity: 10Duke (default), or your existing Azure AD / Google Workspace via federation.

Onboarding tiers

Three levels, depending on your starting point. Compare them on the plans page — each tier includes everything in the simpler tier above it, plus more.

  • Setup — you have gINT in SQL Server already, you want help deploying Datgel View and configuring it.
  • Migration — your gINT data is in Access; we upsize to SQL Server and then do the Setup work.
  • Full Stack — greenfield. We provision the Azure VM, install SQL Server and gINT, and do everything above.

What you'll learn during onboarding

  • Deployment administration (org-project assignments, user provisioning, branding)
  • Symbology configuration (PointType icons, project colours)
  • OGC API key management for QGIS and ArcGIS Pro users
  • Linking PDF logs and photos to points so clients can download them
  • Leapfrog Works sync setup for your geological modelling team
  • Day-to-day usage for your engineers and project managers

Recent additions worth pointing out

  • Datgel Leapfrog Sync — a Windows companion app that keeps Seequent Leapfrog Works models current with your gINT boreholes. Leapfrog-ready collar / survey / interval CSVs, refreshed in two clicks, from the command line, or on a daily schedule.
  • 23-language interface — every screen translated, with locale-aware date and number formats. Each user picks their language in Preferences.
  • SQL Query Workbench at /sql — any signed-in user can run validated SELECT queries against the gINT database, save them, share spatial selections drawn on the map, or ask in plain English via the AI SQL builder.
  • Project Locations — pin office HQs for each project; bulk import from CSV or GeoJSON; geocode addresses via Azure Maps.
  • Source-DB schema mapping admin at /admin/database — map PROJECT and POINT column names against your specific gINT schema if it diverges from the stock template.
  • Saved-view scopes for admins — publish a deployment-wide default view, or per-project defaults so each project opens on its own viewport and layer mix.
  • Expanded file format allowlist — 89 extensions across 13 categories: AGS, GEF, GPJ, shapefile, GeoTIFF, Leapfrog, PLAXIS, geophysics, CAD, point clouds, archives. Per-file cap 500 MB.
