Redesigning a data-intensive cloud platform for geoscientists to visualize, interpret, and collaborate on subsurface assets.
i2G faced a critical hurdle: their existing geoscience platform was a legacy system that struggled to meet the demands of modern, collaborative subsurface data analysis. Engineers and geoscientists were bogged down by a non-intuitive interface that made managing massive datasets—from complex well logs to spatial metadata—a slow, error-prone process.
The mission was to transform this desktop-heavy workflow into a high-performance, cloud-native experience. We needed to design a system that could handle extreme data density while maintaining a fluid, professional-grade user experience that empowered teams to interpret assets in real-time.
We approached the redesign by first understanding the mental models of geoscientists. The solution wasn't just a "skin" but a complete restructuring of how data is consumed. We implemented a Progressive Disclosure strategy, ensuring users see the most critical data first, with deeper metadata only a click away.
Mapped 45+ unique workflow paths for seismic interpretation and data curation.
Created 200+ reusable UI components in Figma with strict auto-layout and variant logic.
Developed click-through prototypes for stakeholder validation and dev handoff.
Engineered a custom color palette specifically for geological log readability.
Reduction in time spent searching for wellbore assets across global repositories.
Successfully migrated legacy desktop logic into a world-class browser experience.
"The redesign transformed how our users interact with subsurface data. What used to take hours of navigating legacy menus now happens in clicks. The interface isn't just prettier; it's a powerful tool for interpretation."
