A Transformational Journey from Unstructured Geoscience Data to a Digital Analytical Experience
Summary The automated standardization of legacy datasets can facilitate the generation of valuable new insights, when consumed within a business intelligence platform. Where the digital transformation in the energy services sector has successfully led to the automation of data gathering and interpretation processes, a geoscientist's time can be freed up to undertake the more valuable interpretive tasks that are so vital in understanding subsurface geology. A recent advancement in managing data that has significantly helped with this transition has been the adoption of business intelligence and analytics platforms to produce advanced visualizations and automated analysis. This presentation and article focusses on a recent example of this process in action where play cross sections in an unstructured PDF format are processed for use within an analytical platform.
