🧪 From Data to Decision

🌐 What Sets MAGNET Apart

MAGNET delivers precision, speed, and transparency for PFAS managers working across complex contamination landscapes. It is cloud-powered, AI-assisted, big data-enabled, and live-linked to a multiresolution global water database — including USGS and Canadian stream gages, monitoring wells, and ultra-resolution LiDAR terrain data.

• ⚡ Rapid, high-fidelity modeling: Instantly generate detailed water system models anywhere — integrating global databases with sub-meter LiDAR elevation data for swift, site-specific PFAS assessments.
• 🧭 Real-time, interactive analysis: Go beyond static reports with browser-based, dynamic visualization of PFAS movement, exposure zones, and reactive contaminant transport.
• 🤖 AI-assisted insights with human-in-the-loop: Predictive analytics and automated water balance calculations are refined by expert judgment — ensuring robust, justifiable decisions.
• 🌍 Comprehensive data integration: Seamlessly connect to 11+ national databases, monitoring networks, and stream gages — with the ability to upload proprietary site data for full customization.
• 🧩 Nested modeling: Build models inside models — ideal for multi-scale PFAS investigations across watersheds, facilities, and jurisdictions.
• ☁️ Cloud-based and browser-accessible: No software to install — accessible anywhere, anytime, with full collaboration across agencies and teams.

⚠️ Pain Points and MAGNET Solutions

1. Overwhelming Data Complexity and Gaps

The Problem: PFAS managers must piece together fragmented data from national databases and local monitoring — a slow, resource-intensive process that often leaves critical gaps.

MAGNET’s Solution: Integrates and visualizes data from 11+ national sources, streamlining analysis and eliminating manual wrangling. Site-specific uploads ensure models reflect the most current and complete data available.

2. Uncertainty in Contaminant Transport and Fate

The Problem: PFAS transport and transformation are notoriously difficult to predict — delaying confident decisions on remediation and public health protection.

MAGNET’s Solution: Advanced reactive transport modeling, powered by high-resolution terrain and AI analytics, simulates PFAS movement and fate. Managers gain foresight into contamination spread and can act proactively.

3. Slow and Costly Model Development

The Problem: Traditional modeling is slow, expensive, and labor-intensive — delaying emergency response and driving up consulting costs.

MAGNET’s Solution: AI and big data enable instant model generation for any location. Rapid deployment supports urgent response and frees resources for strategy, not setup.

💰 Strategic Value

MAGNET dramatically reduces the time and cost of assessing, modeling, and managing PFAS contamination risks — accelerating remediation, minimizing litigation exposure, and protecting public health with confidence and clarity.
