  1. Themes Geology & Mineral Resources Short overview description Main achievements Open issues 2 themes: Geology & Mineral Resources INSPIRE Conference, Edinburgh

  2. Theme Geology & Mineral Resources Editor Facilitator Contact point INSPIRE Conference, Edinburgh

  3. Theme Geology Definition: Geology characterised according to composition and structure. Includes bedrock, aquifers and geomorphology. INSPIRE Conference, Edinburgh

  4. Theme Geology Use cases – mainly to provide geological data: • to detect geo-hazards • to ensure safe disposal of waste • to detect ground instability in a flat area • to look for deep fractured zones (geothermal exploration) • to check background radiation level changes • to undertake water balance to ensure compliance with the WFD • for Groundwater reporting for WFD • to define significant pressure on groundwater • to assess corrosivity to underground assets • to plan tunneling operations safely and effectively INSPIRE Conference, Edinburgh

  5. Theme Geology Legislation: For the Hydrogeological part of the model : the WFD/GWD (Water Framework Directive / Groundwater Directive) Existing standards: • GeoScienceML (IUGS – International Union of Geological Sciences) • O&M (ISO/OGC) INSPIRE Conference, Edinburgh

  6. Theme Geology Data model - 3 parts: • Geology: geologic features (units, faults, landforms) • Geophysics: surveys, measurements, models • Hydrogeology: aquifers, groundwater bodies • The model is mainly to deliver interpreted data (If raw data are required, we recommend to use O&M) • The model does not address 3D Geological models INSPIRE Conference, Edinburgh

  7. Theme Geology Extension: More feture-types and properties to describe rocks Geology (core model): • Geologic units Groups of rocks (lithology, ...) • Geologic structures Faults • Geomorphologic features Landforms • Boreholes INSPIRE Conference, Edinburgh

  8. Theme Geology Extension: More feature-types and properties Geophysics (core model): • Geoph. Surveys Location, type, ... • Geoph. Measurements Types: station, profile, 3D meas. • Geoph. Models Spatial distribution of physical properties INSPIRE Conference, Edinburgh

  9. Theme Geology Hydrogeology: • Water system: • Groundwater Bodies • Groundwater Flow System • Rock system: • Hydrogeological units • Aquifer System (aquifers, aquitards) • Hydrogeological System: • contains Groundwater Flow Systems • is formed by Aquifer System • Hydrogeological Objects: • Natural (vanishing point, spring / seep) • Man made (water well) INSPIRE Conference, Edinburgh

  10. Theme Geology Issues / to check during comment and testing period: • Large scope to address underground knowledge => to check the balance between core and extension • Hydrogeology model: • not yet distinction between core / extension • not yet compliant with the GCM coverage model • Data quality description • Portrayal rules: some standards exist but ... INSPIRE Conference, Edinburgh

  11. Theme Mineral Resources Mineral resources INSPIRE Conference, Edinburgh

  12. Theme Mineral Resources Definition: Mineral resources including metal ores, industrial minerals, etc., where relevant including depth/height information on the extent of the resource. INSPIRE Conference, Edinburgh

  13. Theme Mineral Resources Use cases: • Dealing with environmental uncertainties related to mining wastes • What is the gold potential of Central and Southeastern Europe? • Where to find Germanium in Europe? • A manufacturer is looking for the closest producers of Ground Calcium Carbonate (GCC) INSPIRE Conference, Edinburgh

  14. Theme Mineral Resources Legislation: • Mining Waste Directive • Raw materials initiative Existing standards: • EarthResourceML (IUGS) • GeoScienceML (IUGS – International Union of Geological Sciences) • Mineral: International Mineralogical Association INSPIRE Conference, Edinburgh

  15. Theme Mineral Resources Mineral Resources (core model): • Earth Resource: natural material of potential economic value • Mining Feature: working on the Earth Resource Earth Resource: • Mineral occurrence • Commodity and Commodity measure • Mineral deposit model Mining Feature: • Mine • Mining activity INSPIRE Conference, Edinburgh

  16. Theme Mineral Resources Mineral Resources extension: Earth Resource: • Mineral occurrence • Commodity and Commodity measure • Mineral deposit model • Earth Resource Material • Mineral system • Supergene processes (ex: alteration) Mining Feature: • Mine • Mining activity • Mined material • Products • Mining waste INSPIRE Conference, Edinburgh

  17. Theme Mineral Resources Issues / to check during comment and testing period: • Balance between core and extension • Data quality description • Layers organisation, portrayal rules INSPIRE Conference, Edinburgh

  18. Themes Geology & Mineral Resources We thank you for your attention and your comments INSPIRE Conference, Edinburgh
