Back in the saddle

I started this blog with the best of intentions but.....

This year has turned into a non-stop rush centered around the growing adoption of the Geoscience Information Network, precisely the type of thing I wanted to talk about here.

So, I'm going to try again. Blogging is perfectly suited to following the fast moving developments in technology and community.

Some recent news:

DOE funds National Geothermal Data System - http://www.geothermaldata.org/

AZGS launches GIN user site - http://usgin.org/

GIN developer's site - http://lab.usgin.org/

State Geologists to deploy NGDS nationwide and populate it with state-specific data - http://www.azgs.az.gov/geothermal_pressrelease.shtml

Energistics releases white paper on metadata standards and adopts GIN and NGDS as prototypes for data integration in the upstream petroleum industry - http://www.energistics.org/posc/NewsBot.asp?MODE=VIEW&ID=1213&SnID=568245291
