GIS Exploration Advisers
Since the mid-1990s Lynx has been producing GIS Exploration Advisers, which are GIS-enabled regional reports using industry standard ESRI ArcGIS software. Lynx works with geological consultants with experience of specific regions, to build coherent syntheses, valuable to the exploration geologist and new ventures entrant.
Using the ArcGIS front-end, the user has instant access to powerful exploration and G&G data, which can be queried based on specific user-driven parameters.
To complement the GIS Exploration Advisers, Lynx also has a rich seismic archive with SEG-Y available in almost all producing basins around the world, plus a wide selection of digital wells in LAS format.
Specialist plug-ins for ArcGIS have been developed in-house which enable the explorationist to use conventional exploration formats such as LAS and SEG-Y directly in the GIS. These powerful tools also make data integration with interpretation workstations simple and quick.
The GIS Exploration Advisers are fully loaded with standard datasets including: bathymetry, gravity, SRTM Elevation, satellite (Landsat) imagery, surface geology, well databases, up-to-date concession boundaries, field maps, production information and oilfields databases.
Installation, training, and data integration services are offered to clients to enable the full potential to be harnessed.
The products are updated on an annual basis.
Lynx is also working on new GIS Exploration Advisers in under-explored areas of the world - see the Lynx Blog for announcements of new developments.
