paleonet Announcement: EGU 2005 Session: Geoinformatics in Stratigraphy, Sedimentologyand Paleontology



Session announcement and call for abstracts

SSP23 Geoinformatics in Stratigraphy, Sedimentology and Paleontology

This sessions introduces the newly founded International Coalition
for Geoinformatics (iGeoInfo, http://www.igeoinfo.org) as a global
forum on geoinformatics in sedimentary geology and paleobiology.
iGeoInfo was launched at the 32nd International Geological Congress
in Florence, Italy.

In this session we shall present and discuss a collaborative
international effort that focuses on the next generation research
and education and that provides a forum for both individuals and
organisations involved in conducting and sponsoring this research.

The presentations will be about current geoscience database
and information management projects and strategies and discuss
issues concerning the necessary information technology (i.e., data-
base interoperability, data sharing, etc.), the nature of their
geoscience communities, and their information needs.

Additional information will be available at
