Summary

A Ukrainian University of Dnepr city offers software product for monitoring of mineral resources, environmental conditions and forecasting of seismically hazardous events. Advantages - complex processing of various spatial data, user-friendly interface with built-in hint system. The university is looking for companies and R&D Institutions for the product using and its development. The partnership will take the form of a commercial agreement with technical assistance or a technical cooperation.

Description

A Ukrainian University of Dnepr city has a long-term experience of training staff, R&D and applied research, solving practical problems for mining industry and efficient usage of energy resources. An integrated approach allows not only to offer engineering solutions, but also to optimize the entire system on the basis of the automatic control systems and software that enable monitoring of any process. The researcher of the University developed powerful tool of integrated intellectual analysis of spatial data RAPID GIS (Recognition, Automated Prognoses, Interpretation of Data). This software combines the possibilities of storage, processing, spatial data visualization and their intellectual analysis by Data Mining methods.

RAPID GIS allows to perform complex processing and analysis various of spatial data – the results of geochemical, geological and geophysical, landscape shots, cartographic materials, space images and data obtained in mines. 

Data can be provided in a vector, grid and raster forms and converted from one to another. The system includes a core that provides data management, as well as a set of modules, grouped in the following functional subsystems: data management, transforms calculation, lineament analysis, comprehensive data analysis, forecasting, graphics.

In total, the RAPID GIS includes more than 70 functional modules with a single user interface in English and Russian versions. RAPID provides analytical, information and referral, and measuring functions; data pre-processing; construction of related maps, research of dependencies and statistical analysis, detection, clustering and classification of objects and phenomena; mapping of situations, 2D and 3D-visualization of data, layout and printing of output documents. It supports import and export in Surfer, ArcGIS, ArcView, Micromine, AutoCAD and other formats. RAPID GIS differs from other computer systems solving problems of bowel studying by its focusing on wide application of Data Mining methods for the complex processing of miscellaneous-altitude information - borehole, ground surface and space.

The staff is equipped with all necessary equipment and software and has a long-term experience in solving geological problems using RAPID GIS, which is used in the deposits of Ukraine, Kazakhstan, Uzbekistan, Germany and other countries.

The university is looking for partners such as industrial companies and local authorities for commercial agency agreement with technical assistance for developed GIS. It can be as its acquisition followed by its technical support, as the joint solution of geological and environmental problems, environmental monitoring problems of the environment and subsurface situation.  Also welcomed R&D Institutions for the scientific and technical cooperation in order to improve the GIS RAPID or the own developments of a partners are also welcomed.

Advantages and Innovations

Advantages:

- Similar systems are almost not represented in the world;

  - All modules of the system have a single interface, creating an integrated computing environment;

  - It has the minimum system requirements; 

  - Work with different types of land, aerospace and well data.

Innovations: 

 - Unique features for calculating of input data transformation and selecting the most informative of them;

 - Developed subsystem of lineament analysis, providing the opportunity to use the results of this analysis in Data Mining procedures;

 - On the basis of the system’s instrumentation it was created the specialized technology of integrated analysis of different type and different level data, oriented on the solving of forecasting tasks of natural resources management.
