THE POSSIBILITIES OF UTILIZING GIS IN THE STUDY OF GEOLOGY OF DEPOSITS

Abstract

The Geographical Information System (GIS) introduced into the mining practice represents a new technology of a graphical and alphanumerical data overworking. GIS becomes a necessary part of the mining practice control, as it works with many data more quickly and effective by, and enables a presentation of the data in a 2-D and 3-D space by a suitable graphical means. A new way of creating GIS, a new and progressive method of overworking, evaluating and archivating of geological data in Slovakia, is presented in this paper.
