The Geomatics Committee provides global guidance for the survey & positioning and geospatial data management disciplines.

Geomatics helps IOGP Members by developing and disseminating good practice, providing a forum for exchanging knowledge, influencing regulators and standards organizations, maintaining international position data exchange formats, data models, and a global geodetic parameter dataset (EPSG), and liases with industry associations.

• Provide maintenance of EPSG Dataset and enhance EPSG Web Platform augmented by GIGS Testing Module. Deliver EPSG and GIGS Supporting Documentation

• Work with OGC, ISO, SEG, OSDU and Regulators to promote adoption or improvement of coordinate data and reference system standards

• Deliver new Geomatics Reports: 4D Seismic Survey Guidelines, GN for Geodesy in Angola, GN for Seawater Pressure to Depth Conversion

• Promote Geomatics work including development of videos, info-sheets, articles, surveys etc

• Jointly with Environment Committee, deliver report on Recommended Practices for CH4 Emissions Detection and Quantification Technologies

Further work:• Jointly with Environment and Metocean Committees, develop

an industry guideline for Seabed and Overburden Integrity Monitoring for subsea CO2 storage projects

• Provide maintenance of Geomatics Data Models: SSDM, LSDM and OISDM, including delivery of Unified Symbology Set

• Provide maintenance and support of Geomatics reports including GN24 and GN25, P Formats, and USBL Technical Specification

• Cooperate with IPIECA Oil Spill WG on matters related to Common Operating Picture

• Advocacy with IMCA’s Offshore Survey Division on revision of their current, and development of planned guidelines

• Delivered new GeoRepository Platform and released first EPSG Dataset in new data model compatible with ISO 19111:2019

• Revision of Geospatial Integrity of Geoscience Software-GIGS documents, test data sets, and development of GIGS Web Platform

• Launched: 4D Survey Guidelines TF, Seawater Pressure to Depth Conversion TF and GIGS TF• Hosted two P Formats Webinars in November 2020• Liaison with Open Subsurface Data Universe (OSDU) to ensure adoption of the EPSG data

model, and to promote use of Geomatics Data Formats and Models Released:• Revised GN3 Contract area description• Environmental sampling and monitoring from airborne and satellite remote sensingStill to be released in 2020:• P7 wellbore survey data exchange format and User Guide• Revised GN19 – Guidelines for GNSS positioning in the oil & gas industry• Offshore Infrastructure Survey Data Model and Supporting Documentation
