Unlock deeper subsurface insights with Leapfrog Works and the Hydrogeology Extension for smarter, safer civil and environmental projects.
In environmental and engineering projects, understanding subsurface conditions is crucial for mitigating risk and ensuring project success.
Leapfrog Works is a comprehensive 3D geological modelling tool designed specifically for addressing civil and environmental challenges – enhancing subsurface understanding, improving collaboration across teams, and simplifying communication with stakeholders.
It is widely used in civil engineering and environmental projects to maximise efficiency, mitigate risk, and bring clarity to complex data through powerful 3D visualisations.
It enables powerful and reliable geological insights that help project teams make informed decisions and avoid costly unforeseen issues.

Translating a site model into a groundwater flow – the Hydrogeology Extension
The Hydrogeology Extension for Leapfrog Works is a powerful add-on that expands the capabilities of the base Leapfrog Works software.
The extension is designed to translate a site model into a groundwater flow, and contaminant transport model, as well as to bring results from these models back into Leapfrog Works.
This is particularly useful for basin management studies (or contamination studies).
Key features of the Hydrogeology Extension:
- Integration with MODFLOW and FEFLOW: The extension allows users to create and export MODFLOW and FEFLOW grids/meshes, import these and assign properties to them.
Modelling results are also easily imported afterwards. This integration helps in reducing risk, improving analysis results, and saving significant time - Enhanced Analysis: By integrating Leapfrog Works into the flow and transport modelling process, users can achieve more accurate and reliable analysis results.
This is crucial for projects that require a detailed understanding of groundwater flow and interactions with geological formations - Improved Decision-Making: The Hydrogeology Extension enables a more comprehensive view of subsurface conditions, resulting in better decision-making and planning.
Better collaboration, better decisions, better outcomes
Leapfrog Works, combined with the Hydrogeology Extension, offers a robust solution for civil and environmental projects.
It enhances subsurface understanding, improves collaboration, and simplifies communication, ultimately leading to more successful project outcomes.
Whether you are managing groundwater resources, dealing with contaminant transport, or mitigating risks, Leapfrog Works and the Hydrogeology Extension provide the modelling capability you need to make informed decisions and achieve your project goals.
