The Canadian Database of Geochemical Surveys : historical overview and current challenges / S.W. Adcock and W.A. Spirito. : M44-2024/1E-PDF

"The Canadian Database of Geochemical Surveys (CDoGS) is a sophisticated relational database that holds a comprehensive catalogue of regional geochemical surveys carried out across Canada since the 1950s. The contents are made accessible via a public-facing Government of Canada website. The catalogue provides extensive metadata for each survey, including links to publications and digital data where possible. In addition to high-level metadata, chemical analyses for individual surveys are being added gradually. So far, 1600 surveys have been catalogued, and analytical data for 300 surveys have been incorporated, for a total of 13 000 000 individual analytical measurements. This paper begins with a discussion of the overall IM design philosophy behind CDoGS, then moves on to give some practical examples of how the system can be used, and concludes by highlighting some of the ongoing challenges in building and maintaining the system"--Abstract, page 1.
