Welcome to the EGEODE portal
Geocluster, the leading industry seismic processing solution, is the first industrial application successfully running on the Enabling Grids for E-sciencE (EGEE) Grid Production Service, within the Expanding GEOsciences on DEmand (EGEODE) Virtual Organisation (VO). EGEODE is dedicated to research in geoscience for both public and private industrial research & development and academic laboratories. read more

Overview:

 Multichannel seismic data processing is a core research activity by itself and can involve large  amount  of  data  and  significant  computing  infrastructures.  However,  for  many  in the  academic  geoscience  community,  seismic  processing  is  not  the  main  research activity,  but  rather  an  important  tool  to  image  structures  for integrated  geophysical  or geological  studies.  As  such,  researchers  have  limited  time  and  capacity  to  deal  with complex  software  installations  and  maintenance.  State  of  the  art  processing  softwares from  the  industry  are  also  in  constant  evolution  and  scattered  marine‐geoscientists  can find  it  hard  to  keep  up  with  new  methodologies  or  softwares.  In  2007,  CGGVeritas adapted  its  Geocluster(c)  software  to  the  EGEE  grid  and  involved  academic  labs  via  the EGEODE  (Expanding  GEOsciences  on  DEmand))  VO.  Today,  User  Interfaces  (UI)  are installed  in  several  universities  or  research  labs  and  allow  researchers  to  work  on  a common,  centralized  platform.  Although  not  officially  involved  anymore,  CGGVeritas maintains  the  core  of  this  system  intact  and  a  grid  users  community  progressively grows.  More  than  a  technical  solution  to intensive  computing needs, the “Geocluster  on the  grid”   infrastructure  and community  is an answer  to the episodic  processing  needs  of marine  geophysicists  and  geologists  who  cannot  invest  much  in  this  important  tool but cannot  afford  to  loose  this  knowledge  either.
