Most of our activities during the third quarter dealt with the deployment and the starting of the utilization of the NGDRS technological infrastructure. We dealt primarily with the installation of the Sun Microsystems computer servers. The installation has been very smooth with no particular problems to highlight. Installation of the Oracle database management system on the Sun servers is currently underway. On the software side, work continued with the development of the front-end pages for the web site, and with modifications and additions to the GeoTrek software to fulfill the specific needs of the repository system. Activity on Project 1.0, the conversion and installation of electronic databases continued. We have located and obtained from the BLM the software needed to translate the Oklahoma Geological Survey data set Township/Range/Section coordinates into Lat/Long. We have received and are currently loading the new updated data sets (cores and well log headers) from the BEG. We attended a meeting at the Kansas Geological Survey (KGS) on September 24 to define the participation of the KGS in the NGDRS project. No project review was held in August.
