The Computer Oriented Geological Society (COGS), based in Denver, Colorado, is a professional organization of geologists and geophysicists that actively encourages application of computers to natural resource exploration and development. Founded in December 1982 as a user-oriented group, COGS is a network of earth scientists who both gain and contribute ideas and information regarding geologic computer applications. Dedicated to self-help and low-cost solutions, COGS offers a forum for discussion of common problems and allows new members to benefit from others' experience. Monthly meetings feature a technical presentation followed by discussion. COGS has heard presentations concerning computer-aided mapping, species-diversity statistics, interactive geophysical modeling, double-Fourier analysis, and telecommunications, among others. Future presentations will include expert systems, geologic data-base management, well-log analysis, trend-surface analysis, and economic analysis of oil and gas prospects.
