An environmental monitoring tool must be powerful and easy to use. iChart has an intuitive and fully integrated workspace interface. The built-in navigation panel makes it easy to select between various iChart views: Basemap, Virtual Instrument Control, and Report.
Multi-Vendor Device Library
The simplicity of iChart begins with its extensive library of predefined device drivers for popular environmental sensors. New monitoring sites are quickly configured by selecting instruments from a drop-down list of manufacturers. 4-20 mA, analog voltage, RS232, SDI-12, and RS485 sensor interfaces are also available.
Virtual Displays
In addition to plots, data tables, and statistics, iChart has a complete library of virtual displays and controls to provide visual representation of your data. For example, temperature can be displayed on a traditional mercury thermometer, wind speed and direction on a wind dial, and rain in a graduated cylinder.
Auto Report
Many environmental professionals find themselves at the end of a project crunching numbers and paging through reams and reams of data. iChart's built-in report generator simplifies the entire process. You can quickly generate customized reports to include data tables, statistics, and plots. Best of all you can set iChart to generate these reports automatically. Advanced features allow for months of data to be compressed to a statistical summary or daily averages. iChart makes it easy!

iChart offers a 'one-button' export to Microsoft Excel. Simply highlight the data of interest and click the 'Export to Excel' icon on the main toolbar. Microsoft Excel will be launched and the data will be inserted into a spreadsheet. Features such as 'one-button' Excel simplify your job and improve your productivity!
Post Data to the Internet
Online data is becoming the key component of most real-time environmental monitoring systems. iChart software can setup a fully featured datacenter for you, eliminating all the website development normally required to create a useful online interface.
View data in graphs, data tables, or simply download it for further offline analysis. iChart makes this easy. With WQData.com data hosting service, all you need is a user name and password.
Aerial Photos and Basemaps
See the big picture with iChart. Import an aerial photo or custom basemap and place data source objects on your display. iChart will keep your display up to date with the latest data and notify you if the site is down or an alarm condition is present.
