AbstractAbstract
[en] One of the primary efforts of the International Atomic Energy Agency is the dissemination of information. Within the broad framework of uranium resources, the Agency has published proceedings of many meetings organized by it, and has acquired a very large volume of geological data related to uranium resources, almost all of which are in different formats making a literature search for specific geological data elements a time-consuming, often unsuccessful endeavour. To put all data into a computer format with as much versatility as possible, the Agency engaged four special consultants who designed the International Uranium Geology Information System (INTURGEO). The system consists of four files with a fifth to be added later. These files are the Regional Reference File, Exploration Activity File, Deposit/Occurrence File, and International Summary File. The fifth will probably be the Ore Processing File. At present, the system is being serviced by the commercially developed ADABAS data management system, which may eventually be replaced by a smaller, more specific management system developed especially for INTURGEO to eliminate problems associated with broad usage of a commercial system, and to eliminate several awkward features of ADABAS. This would make easy transport and use of the entire system a simple matter. Development of INTURGEO is on schedule, but every effort is being made to bring it to full operation, including not only data storage and retrieval, but also processing of the data contained. At present the file contains slightly less than 500 records out of an anticipated 3000 and it is expected to be put to use almost immediately. (author)
