Web mining (geotechnical engineering) is a specialized application of web mining, itself a form of data mining and data-intensive computing, focused on the systematic discovery and extraction of patterns, knowledge, and valuable information from data sources available on the World Wide Web that are pertinent to the field of geotechnical engineering. This approach involves employing computational techniques to analyze web content (text, images, multimedia), web structure (links between pages), or web usage data (user interactions) specifically concerning geotechnical phenomena, materials, projects, research, or hazards. Its significance lies in enabling the aggregation and analysis of distributed, heterogeneous online information to support geotechnical analysis, design, risk assessment, and research.
