Object oriented methods and development environment for geoscience applications

Objetivo



Applied geosciences in the fields of petroleum exploration & production, mining, environment and civil engineering require systems where functions and data are increasingly distributed over company's networks. This is particularly true for 3D Earth's sub-surface modelling where a computerized 3 dimensional image of geological features is obtained from an huge amount of geophysical and geological data, along with a concurrent engineering process involving multi-disciplinary teams.

To this end, more complex and more interconnected, interoperable and distributed applications and data stores are needed. both end-user industry and software developers believe that use of object oriented methods into an open development environment which components are distributed using public networks will considerably increase efficiency to build geoscience applications which can be integrated with new and existing ones into a coherent application suite managed from a common desktop.

The OMEGA project will develop the extension to the geoscience domain, of the capabilities of an existing STEP based object oriented software factory (CAS.CADE from MATRA DATAVISION), originally designed for technical and scientific applications for computed aided design and manufacturing industry (CAD/CAM). During this project it is intended to create development tools and services to build applications compliant to existing open standards (CORBA for interoperabilty, STEP for geometry and topology, POSC for geosciences, WWW for communication).

OMEGA deliverables will consist of extended CAS.CADE generic services and geoscience services . OMEGA new services together with existing CAS.CADE generic services will constitute an open geoscience application development framework which will greatly facilitate the development of distributed geoscience applications. In addition project deliverables include the demonstration of interoperability of new and existing geoscience applications in a distributed environment into one application chain managed from a common desktop.

The participants of the OMEGA project will include two complementary application developers (vendors), an application development tool provider, two complementary information technology suppliers from research organizations, and one end user embracing mining, environment and civil engineering activities . the project members are supported by petroleum exploration & production companies and have close relationships with standardisation consortia like OMG, STEP and POSC (Petroleum Open Software Corporation ).

Early in the cycle-life of the project, it is planned to set up an European Vendor's Club of European geoscience software developers non-participating to the project. Through dedicated seminars and training sessions, opportunity will be offered to the members of this Club to get a thorough insight into project results as soon as they become available. Through the European Vendor's Club, European geoscience software developers will get earlier access to the advanced CAS.CADE/ OMEGA software technology which will give them an advantage to compete more favourably with larger US Vendor.

There are non-participating end-user organisations whose background and expertise on the OMEGA project matter is acknowledged. Some of these non-participating organisations will have a recognised role in the elaboration and evolution of the OMEGA products. For that they will offer their advises and guidelines through an Advisory Board which will be attached to the OMEGA project structure.

The targeted market is estimated to be very large : Oil industries, mining, civil and environment engineering, and it is very important for European companies to catch as soon as possible the emerging 3D geoscience market.
