Abstract

Abstract. Web technologies are now an integral part of the implementation of research work in various branches of science. The geological and geophysical direction is no exception, where the planning and execution of geological and geophysical surveys depend on the accuracy, reliability and relevance of the transmitted information.The article deals with the possibilities of web technologies for cartographic support of geological exploration – a complex of scientific and production works, designed to determine the industrial significance of mineral deposits (ore, hydrocarbon, etc.). Examples are given of the use of geoportal solutions for the publication of data on the territory of study.Taking into account the current level of web technologies development, a proprietary web-service was created to provide operational access to geodata during geological and geophysical work. The presented solution is implemented using PostgreSQL DBMS, PostGIS geospatial data processing module, Leaflet JavaScript library. The resulting interactive map allows to perform operational monitoring of field crews during seismic exploration, provides information on the stages of data processing and interpretation. Also it allows to implement a unified geoinformation space for joint work of specialists from different industries.

Highlights

  • IntroductionScientific research carried out in different branches of science and at their intersection is no exception

  • Web technologies are nowadays an integral part of everyday life

  • Web maps represent a new means of communication between cross-industry specialists within a company, a means of optimising data access and a means of coordinating collaborative work to achieve different levels of tasks

Summary

Introduction

Scientific research carried out in different branches of science and at their intersection is no exception. These areas include geological and geophysical work, which often goes hand in hand with cartography. The emergence of GIS and its massive use for geological tasks allowed reaching a new qualitative level in geology and geophysics itself, and in cartography in general. Rethinking the mapping processes, organisation of data access (including Big Data) is reaching a new level in connection with the active implementation of web technologies into the scientific and practical work of geological and geophysical organisations. The purpose of this article is to highlight the role of web technologies in the production process of geological and geophysical organisations whose tasks include the processing and interpretation of geophysical data during exploration work
