Conference preview and participant profiles. 18 GIS (geographic information systems) vendors match product capabilities against oil industry needs
Operation Database/Petroleum GIS is designed to channel information between the petroleum industry and vendors of geographic information systems (GIS). This will be accomplished through standardized presentation of industry requirements and GIS vendor/product descriptions and demonstrations. The goal is increased awareness in both communities - vendors who know the special needs of the petroleum market, and energy professionals cognizant of how GIS may meet those needs. Geobyte is reporting results of the GIS phase in several issues: Vendors are working on a standard set of problems and tasks, which was published in August. This issue presents vendor-supplied descriptions of their products' features and capabilities. Solutions to the data and problem sets, with examples of output, will be presented in November during the National Computer Graphics Association's Mapping and GIS conference in Los Angeles, with publications scheduled for the December issue.
