OneGeology basics
OneGeology is a project to make web-accessible the best available geological map
data worldwide at a scale of about 1:1 million, as a Geological Survey contribution to the
International Year of Planet Earth 2008

The objectives• Make existing geological map data accessible
– in whatever digital format is available in the participating country• Transfer know-how to those who need it• Adopt an approach that recognizes that different nations have differing abilities to
participate• Stimulate a rapid increase in interoperability (ie disseminate GeoSciML further and
faster)
![Page 7: OneGeology An overview Ian Jackson 25 April 2008 OneGeology Secretariat British Geological Survey.](https://reader035.fdocuments.in/reader035/viewer/2022062303/55199e78550346842d8b469f/html5/thumbnails/7.jpg)
A crucial point
• OneGeology is about geological data available in a standard data structure first,
• i.e. making geological map data accessible without geological reconciliation
• The prime objective is not about harmonising geological units and scientific classification across frontiers – that’s something for the longer term
![Page 8: OneGeology An overview Ian Jackson 25 April 2008 OneGeology Secretariat British Geological Survey.](https://reader035.fdocuments.in/reader035/viewer/2022062303/55199e78550346842d8b469f/html5/thumbnails/8.jpg)
“The Brighton Accord”• 81 participants from 43 nations and 53 national and
international bodies• Agreed OneGeology should proceed• Mission: improve the accessibility of global, regional and
national geological map data & increase usefulness to society• Focus on making accessible existing geological map coverage • Recognise that this will catalyse scientific harmonisation of
map data globally.• Geological Surveys to work together to develop interchange
standard to make their data interoperable• Progress to be presented at the International Geological
Congress in Oslo in 2008

Progress in last 17 months• Worldwide interest in OneGeology worldwide - resulting in new recruits and support• Dynamic and well-used web site• Prototype OneGeology portal developed• “Cookbooks” available• OneGeology-Europe proposal to EC; related proposal sent to USA NSF• International governance issues progressed - IPR, funding, future corporate structure
etc• IGC33 Launch and events in preparation

Cookbooks
• A manual to explain from first principles how to put your geological map data on the web (as WMS)
• WFS Cookbook will follow

OneGeology-Europe• €3.25 million, 21 nation, 30 partner proposal to EC
• Takes OneGeology much further in EU Member States
• Accelerating the work on interoperability and data specification
• Enhancing with higher resolution data and applied data access in several areas
• Will see Europe play a leading role globally in development of a geoscience/environmental spatial data infrastructure (ESDI)
![Page 19: OneGeology An overview Ian Jackson 25 April 2008 OneGeology Secretariat British Geological Survey.](https://reader035.fdocuments.in/reader035/viewer/2022062303/55199e78550346842d8b469f/html5/thumbnails/19.jpg)
OneGeology-Europe – major objectives
•make existing digital geological spatial data more easily accessible (i.e. contribute to OneGeology)
•make a significant contribution to the progress of INSPIRE – i.e. develop systems and protocols to better enable the discovery, viewing, downloading and sharing of core European spatial geological data.
•demonstrate best practice examples of the delivery and application of geological spatial data in the public and private sectors.
