PREFACE

In 1987, the Joint Working Group of COGEODATA and COGEODOC on Data Sources and Data Integration under the auspices of the International Union of Geological Sciences, initiated a pilot project to create a worldwide inventory of machine-readable or digitized databases relating to the earth sciences including mineral and water resources. The joint Working Group of COGEODATA and COGEODOC developed an inventory that was presented in printed form in 1989 at the 28th International Geological Congress in Washington, D.C.

In 1992, the Council of International Union of Geological Sciences (IUGS) ratified a proposal for the termination of COGEODATA and COGEODOC and the subsequent formation of a new commission-Commission on the Management and Application of Geoscience Information (COGEOINFO). The missions of COGEOINFO are to stimulate and facilitate the full and wise use of geoscience information in the definition and solution of regional and global problems. To that end, COGEOINFO presents an expanded updated International Inventory of Automated Databases in the Geoscience. In addition to the geoscience of databases, there is also a listing of a variety of geoscience data sources from around the world. The data source listing is not intended to be comprehensive and marks the beginning of an undertaking to publish such a list.

This inventory of geoscience databases lays a foundation for development of a comprehensive source of knowledge regarding the proliferation of databases being produced in the earth sciences. The database and listing of geoscience data sources are intended as a reference tool for the scientific community that will facilitate international exchange of information to promote a new direction for research and exploration.

COGEOINFO wishes to express their appreciation to all the persons who responded to the requests to review and update this inventory and to all those around the world who supported this effort. Further, COGEOINFO wants to acknowledge the original authors of the inventory, T. Albert, J. Hruska, and G. Rassam. And finally, COGEOINFO wants to thank the editor of the current version, Kathryn D. Gunderson of the United States Geological Survey, for her support in the production of this document.

INTRODUCTION

This inventory represents one of several activities planned by the Joint Commission on the Management and Application of Geosciences Information (COGEOINFO) to establish a coherent long-term approach to the management of earth science data sources within the framework of the International Union of Geological Sciences (IUGS). The inventory can benefit the entire earth science community by:

Assisting in the dissemination of knowledge among specialists in our increasingly computer-oriented society.

Enabling easier exchange of technical data, documentation, and information among earth scientists, particularly in the area of international geological research and development.

Increasing awareness about the status of research in the earth science community.

Providing exposure to the range of earth science data available and bringing researchers in contact with information sources.

Future enhancements to the inventory include:

Available via telecommunications networks such as Internet.

Update of inventory completed by the submitting country.

Available on disk including searchware that provides full-text retrieval.

DATA SOURCE INFORMATION

The geoscience data sources section includes the following information:

1. Country - Country under whose jurisdiction the data source falls.

2. Data Source - Name of the organization that maintains the geoscience databases.

3. Address - The address of the geoscience data source.

4. Contact - A point of contact at the data source.

5. Telephone/FAX- The telephone and fax number of the point of contact. An Internet address may also be listed.

DATABASE INFORMATION CONTENT

Based on the Questionnaire and Guide (included in the appendix), the databases are described by the following categories of information:

1. COUNTRY - Country under whose jurisdiction the database center falls. For a center within an international or intergovernmental organization, the term "International" has been applied.

2. REFERENCE - An identifier denoting the country that submitted the reference and a reference number. References are numbered sequentially in alphabetical order and are identified as new records or cross-referenced to their reference numbers in the 1989 version of the document.

3. DATABASE NAME - A short descriptive name or official title that identifies the databases.

4. DATABASE TYPE - An indication of the type of data in the database: Either numeric-factual (Spatial, scientific, and technical) or bibliographic (document - oriented, textual).

5. ACRONYM - A commonly used abbreviation, short name, or acronym for the database title.

6. PRINCIPAL SUBJECT OF DATABASE - Major and minor orientation of the database:

NOTES

1. By announcing the existence of a database, the pertinent organizations and centers operating it do not take any obligation or responsibility concerning its use. Complicated situations still exist in international data transfer. Consequently, the providers of the present inventory do not guarantee the accessibility of some of the databases contained herein. However, we trust that agreement will always be arrived at between a potential data user and the administrator of a database, no matter whether on a payment basis, through mutual data exchange, or by providing a certain volume of data free of charge.

2. The providers wish to state that they could not verify all the information submitted via the questionnaires. We depended on the suppliers of the information for the accuracy of the submitted information and therefore take no responsibility for any inexactness.

3. The index terms used in this inventory are based on The Multilingual Thesaurus of Geosciences. by G. N. Rassam, J. Gravesteijn, and R. Potenza, Pergamon Press, 1988.

4. The United States Government does not endorse products or manufacturers. Trade on manufacturers' names appear only because they are considered essential to the objective of this document.

Database: Rock Analysis Storage SystemData Type: Numeric BibliographicAcronym: RASSData Subject: Geochemistry, Isotopes, Regional Geology, Mapping GeologySubjects: The Rock Analysis Storage System was developed to store and retrieve chemical

analyses using geologic and location attributes as query parameters. Some attributes are material, sample type, sample source, rock type, geologic age, rock name, formation, and latitude and longitude, or, in some cases, UTM. Parameters of the coding scheme permit only certain characteristics of the sample and do not provide for a full description. Only observable characteristics can be coded at the time of collection; however, additional coding or corrections can be entered into the system at a later date. All analytical results for each element are stored separately according to the method and unit of measure. These data are consequently used in statistical analysis, plotting outines, and terminal graphics
