Abstract

We have developed a data structure called GEOH5 with the objective of general integration and storage of geological models, data, and metadata where dissemination, general access, and persistence are required. It answers the needs of modelers who require a structure that is compact, open, reasonably comprehensive in scope, and extensible. Although only a few years old, the GEOH5 data structure is already in use by thousands of users with increasing acceptance across the geosciences. This includes industry, academia, and geological survey organizations that are using GEOH5 as a documented, public, easy-to-use, vendorneutral, and permanently accessible means of storing and disseminating models, data, and metadata.
