What is DEO?

Datapages Exploration Objects™ – DEO – is a web-based search-and-retrieval system that enables exploration geologists to find and retrieve geo-referenced, GIS-ready maps, cross-sections, seismic lines and other exploration objects faster and more easily than ever before.

The key: we’ve isolated, geo-rectified and indexed maps, figures, seismic lines and other exploration objects from articles published by the American Association of Petroleum Geologists and a continually growing list of content partners, now including more than 60 petroleum geology organizations.

The DEO index currently includes more than 70,000 objects, 50K+ maps and 20K+ sections.

DEO spatial searches utilize the power and speed of the latest information technology – putting a whole new world of exploration objects literally at your fingertips, all downloadable GIS-ready and with complete metadata files for use in GIS and other spatial software(s).

Finding the exploration objects you need – digging through publications, extracting maps, and other objects, and making those objects GIS-ready – used to take hours or even days. With DEO, you can do it all in minutes.

The result? Major savings in labor, time, and dollars – hundreds of dollars on every map, cross-section and seismic line you use. And better-informed decision-making – with less delay.

The payoff: DEO can help make any organization relying on exploration geology more competitive – and more profitable.

For explorationists around the world, DEO is the new gold-standard in search and retrieval.
