Workshop 1: OneStratigraphy: A Synthesized Database for Modern Stratigraphy

Stratigraphy has become an increasingly data-driven discipline, with researchers and professionals relying on vast amounts of stratigraphic data to understand Earth's history, sedimentary processes, and resource potential. OneStratigraphy seeks to address the need for a unified, comprehensive database for modern stratigraphy, offering a platform where researchers can access and analyse stratigraphic information with unprecedented precision and efficiency. This workshop will introduce the OneStratigraphy database, covering database structure, current content and hands-on techniques for inputting, managing and outputting datasets. Participants will gain exposure to the latest advancements in the database design, stratigraphic correlation, and data integration, making this workshop an essential experience for geoscientists interested in achieving breakthroughs in stratigraphy.

Duration: half day

Note: An onsite registration is not possible, you have to register in advance (see conference website)

 Forum 1: Géosciences et Société : sous-sol, bien commun, ressource et patrimoine (Geosciences and Society: subsurface, common good, resource and heritage)

The French Scientific program, PEPR (Priority Research Programs and Equipment PEPR) "Subsurface, a Common Good" aims to assess the future national demand for subsurface resources and uses, to characterize its geological potentials, and to study the environmental impacts of its uses, the politicization of the subsurface, and the legal aspects involved. One of the targets of this program is the French Massif Central, exposing the Variscan basement of Western Europe. The specific goals of the project on the FMC is to develop an interdisciplinary approach at the cross roads between geosciences and humanities in order to nourish the debate on the future of this region in the frame of the ongoing energy, ecological and societal transitions.

Following session D1, a forum will be organized, where participants of GeoTolosa will mix with colleagues specialized in social sciences. This forum will be entirely organized by the leaders of the PEPR project on the French Massif Central.

For more information about the PEPR look here:

 Meeting 1: Business Meeting of the Subcommission on Devonian Stratigraphy (2h, late afternoon, anticipated date: June, 24^th)

Meeting 2: Business Meeting of the Subcommission on Carboniferous Stratigraphy (2h, late afternoon, anticipated date: June, 26^th)

Meeting 3: Business Meeting of the Subcommission on Permian Stratigraphy (2h, late afternoon, anticipated date: June, 24^th)

Meeting 4: The future of the VARISCAN Meeting (possibly after one of the sessions in symposium C)
