Assessment of geothermal related data bases
Data bases that were developed for, or in connection with, DOE sponsored geothermal evaluation programs were reviewed with respect to their applicability and usefulness. Eight data bases were selected for the review based upon their potential widespread appeal and other factors. The data bases considered for this study were: (1) GEOTHERM - compiled by the US Geological Survey; (2) GRAD - Developed by Lawrence Berkeley Laboratory; (3) GPM - Developed by Mitre Corporation, currently under direction of Meridian Corporation; (4) OIT Site Data Bases - Compiled by the Oregon Institute of Technology, Geo-Heat Center; (5) UURI Open File Data - Compiled by the University of Utah Research Institute, Earth Science Laboratory; (6) UURI Sample Library - Compiled by the University of Utah Research Institute, Earth Science Laboratory; (7) Leasing and Permitting Data Base - Developed by WAPORA, Inc.; (8) LOGDEX Data Base - compiled by the University of Texas at Austin. These data bases were found to be useful for certain aspects regarding geothermal development and utilization.
