The U.S. Geological Survey is a partner in a cooperative agreement with a company that uses Landmark Graphics, Inc. software, and stores its geologic/geophysical interpretation and 2-D/3-D seismic data in Landmark Graphics, Inc. OpenWorks format. The cooperator proposes to share its interpretations and 3-D seismic data with the U.S. Geological Survey and requests that results are returned in the same format. The U. S. Geological Survey must be able to easily assimilate data and return the results in Landmark Graphics OpenWorks format. Also, the U.S. Geological Survey scientists must be able to communicate in the same software language as its partners. The USGS currently uses Landmark Graphics PC based interpretation software from GeoGraphix. Therefore, it is essential that data and interpretations be able to share a common database and be able to exchange data seamlessly between the proposed UNIX based and in place PC based software. In addition, the USGS requires the option of purchasing customized training to be taught in Denver, Colorado. Rates to be quoted at price per day for up to 10 days.
