Geological Conservation Review
The Geological Conservation Review (GCR) is produced by the UK's Joint Nature Conservation Committee and is designed to identify those sites of national and international importance needed to show all the key scientific elements of the geological and geomorphological features of Britain. These sites display sediments, rocks, minerals, fossils, and features of the landscape that make a special contribution to an understanding and appreciation of Earth science and the geological history of Britain, which stretches back more than three billion years. The intention of the project, which was devised in 1974 by George Black and William Wimbledon working for the Governmental advisory agency, the Nature Conservancy Council (NCC), was activated in 1977. It aimed to provide the scientific rationale and information base for the conservation of geological SSSIs (Sites of Special Scientific Interest, protected under British law (latterly the Wildlife and Countryside Act 1981, as amended 1995). The NCC and country conservation agencies were established in 1990 when JNCC became established (Environmental Protection Act 1990) and took over responsibility for managing the GCR site assessment process, and publishing accounts of accepted sites.

Iceberg Armadas in the Geological Past: An unlikely control on glacial climates
This talk is part of the GeoTalks webinar series 2020 created by the School of Earth and Ocean Sciences at Cardiff University. Speaker: Aidan Starr Off the coast of South Africa, tiny fragments of Antarctica can be found hidden in layers of deep-sea mud; relics of melting icebergs from the distant past. In this webinar, we will see how this surprising evidence is helping geologists, oceanographers, and climate scientists to better understand climate conditions during past ice ages.

Development of marine terminals & facilities in new or existing ports
The United States has become one of the largest LNG producers in the world, but today we have only 6 existing and operational LNG export terminals. Presently there are another 17 LNG export projects and terminals approved by FERC in the US and another 13 proposed; either already filed or in the prefiling stage. The presentation talks about these marine aspects and the various regulatory permitting, risk management and stakeholder management processes and steps needed in developing a marine export terminal. It looks at the challenges and the solutions that need to be in place for a successful project and subsequently safe operations.

Why don't we all just use Geothermal Energy?
Science tells us there's enough energy in the first 10 kilometres below our planet's surface to provide all our energy needs for millions of years. The Romans tapped into it for their hot water spas. Today, we all know it as Geothermal Energy. There's no carbon dioxide emissions and no air pollution with geothermal, and it's literally right there beneath our feet.

Kawasaki Geological Engineering Case Study
Kawasaki Geological Engineering is using FUJITSU Cloud Service K5 Zinrai Platform Service Zinrai Deep Learning —Fujitsu’s deep learning platform service—to analyze and process the huge volume of radar images collected with underground radar probe equipment. This increases the efficiency of the search for underground cavities, which previously required expert technicians to make visual determinations. In addition, by connecting this technology with a service which displays the problem spots on a map—provided by Fujitsu Traffic & Road Data Service—the positions of cavities beneath road surfaces can be accurately understood, making the necessity of road repairs clear to local governments.

Geologic Mapping to Empower Communities: Status of geologic mapping for groundwater in Minnesota
Less than one-third of the U.S. is mapped at the level of detail necessary to make informed planning decisions on a local scale concerning natural resources, natural hazards, infrastructure planning, and environmental stewardship. In the Great Lakes region, the Great Lakes Geologic Mapping Coalition (GLGMC), a group including U.S. and Canadian state and provincial geological surveys, is producing detailed 3D geologic maps that are helping to provide decision-relevant information to Great Lakes state communities. Due to similar regional geology, these state surveys can work together, sharing their expertise and resources so that each can better address geologic issues in their area. Working with the communities, the GLGMC provides and makes maps that solve problems such as groundwater conta...

This increases the efficiency of the search for underground cavities, which previously required expert technicians to make visual determinations.

Read the full written case study here: http://www.fujitsu.com/global/about/resources/news/press-releases/2017/0515-02.html
In Japan, there are about 3,300 incidents of collapse caused by cavities under the surface of roads annually, making an issue in society. The primary cause of these collapses is aging sewer pipes, often located about three meters underground. This creates a growing need for a system that can determine the risk of a collapse without excavating the road to investigate.
Analysis and processing of the massive volume of radar images taken with Kawasaki Geological Engineering's world-leading underground cavity detection technology will be carried out using image recognition through the Zinrai Deep Learning platform service, which was launched by Fujitsu in April 2017. The AI will be trained through machine learning on images where changes in radar reflection are displayed as waveforms, and will then determine whether they are cavities or sewer pipes.

Less than one-third of the U.S. is mapped at the level of detail necessary to make informed planning decisions on a local scale concerning natural resources, natural hazards, infrastructure planning, and environmental stewardship. In the Great Lakes region, the Great Lakes Geologic Mapping Coalition (GLGMC), a group including U.S. and Canadian state and provincial geological surveys, is producing detailed 3D geologic maps that are helping to provide decision-relevant information to Great Lakes state communities. Due to similar regional geology, these state surveys can work together, sharing their expertise and resources so that each can better address geologic issues in their area. Working with the communities, the GLGMC provides and makes maps that solve problems such as groundwater contamination and resource development.
This is the second presentation in the AGI Critical Issues webinar, "Geologic Mapping to Empower Communities: Examples from the Great Lakes". This free webinar brings together experts from three state geological surveys to introduce geologic mapping in the Great Lakes region, showcase projects from the Great Lakes Geologic Mapping Coalition, and review planning decisions made based on their work.
Our speakers are:
Richard C. Berg, Director, Illinois State Geological Survey
Harvey Thorleifson, Director, Minnesota Geological Survey
Jason Thomason, Associate Hydrogeologist and Section Head; Hydrogeology and Geophysics, Illinois State Geological Survey
John Yellich, Director, Michigan Geological Survey at Western Michigan University
This webinar is co-sponsored by the American Association of State Geologists, Association of Engineering and Environmental Geologists, American Institute of Professional Geologists, Environmental and Engineering Geophysical Society, Geological Society of America, National Association of State Boards of Geology, Society for Sedimentary Geology, and the Society of Exploration Geophysicists’ International Exposition and 88th Annual Meeting in Anaheim.

Working with the communities, the GLGMC provides and makes maps that solve problems such as groundwater contamination and resource development.
This is the second presentation in the AGI Critical Issues webinar, "Geologic Mapping to Empower Communities: Examples from the Great Lakes". This free webinar brings together experts from three state geological surveys to introduce geologic mapping in the Great Lakes region, showcase projects from the Great Lakes Geologic Mapping Coalition, and review planning decisions made based on their work.
Our speakers are:
Richard C. Berg, Director, Illinois State Geological Survey
Harvey Thorleifson, Director, Minnesota Geological Survey
Jason Thomason, Associate Hydrogeologist and Section Head; Hydrogeology and Geophysics, Illinois State Geological Survey
John Yellich, Director, Michigan Geological Survey at Western Michigan University
This webinar is co-sponsored by the American Association of State Geologists, Association of Engineering and Environmental Geologists, American Institute of Professional Geologists, Environmental and Engineering Geophysical Society, Geological Society of America, National Association of State Boards of Geology, Society for Sedimentary Geology, and the Society of Exploration Geophysicists’ International Exposition and 88th Annual Meeting in Anaheim.

The United States has become one of the largest LNG producers in the world, but today we have only 6 existing and operational LNG export terminals. Presently there are another 17 LNG export projects and terminals approved by FERC in the US and another 13 proposed; either already filed or in the prefiling stage.
The presentation talks about these marine aspects and the various regulatory permitting, risk management and stakeholder management processes and steps needed in developing a marine export terminal. It looks at the challenges and the solutions that need to be in place for a successful project and subsequently safe operations.

Science tells us there's enough energy in the first 10 kilometres below our planet's surface to provide all our energy needs for millions of years. The Romans tapped into it for their hot water spas. Today, we all know it as Geothermal Energy. There's no carbon dioxide emissions and no air pollution with geothermal, and it's literally right there beneath our feet. So why isn't our entire planet powered by it?

Kawasaki Geological Engineering is using FUJITSU Cloud Service K5 Zinrai Platform Service Zinrai Deep Learning —Fujitsu’s deep learning platform service—to analyze and process the huge volume of radar images collected with underground radar probe equipment. This increases the efficiency of the search for underground cavities, which previously required expert technicians to make visual determinations. In addition, by connecting this technology with a service which displays the problem spots on a map—provided by Fujitsu Traffic & Road Data Service—the positions of cavities beneath road surfaces can be accurately understood, making the necessity of road repairs clear to local governments.
Read the full written case study here: http://www.fujitsu.com/global/about/resources/news/press-releases/2017/0515-02.html
In Japan, there are about 3,300 incidents of collapse caused by cavities under the surface of roads annually, making an issue in society. The primary cause of these collapses is aging sewer pipes, often located about three meters underground. This creates a growing need for a system that can determine the risk of a collapse without excavating the road to investigate.
Analysis and processing of the massive volume of radar images taken with Kawasaki Geological Engineering's world-leading underground cavity detection technology will be carried out using image recognition through the Zinrai Deep Learning platform service, which was launched by Fujitsu in April 2017. The AI will be trained through machine learning on images where changes in radar reflection are displayed as waveforms, and will then determine whether they are cavities or sewer pipes.

Geological Conservation Review
The Geological Conservation Review (GCR) is produced by the UK's Joint Nature Conservation Committee and is designed to identify those sites of national and international importance needed to show all the key scientific elements of the geological and geomorphological features of Britain. These sites display sediments, rocks, minerals, fossils, and features of the landscape that make a special contribution to an understanding and appreciation of Earth science and the geological history of Britain, which stretches back more than three billion years. The intention of the project, which was devised in 1974 by George Black and William Wimbledon working for the Governmental advisory agency, the Nature Conservancy Council (NCC), was activated in 1977. It aimed to provide the scientific rationale and information base for the conservation of geological SSSIs (Sites of Special Scientific Interest, protected under British law (latterly the Wildlife and Countryside Act 1981, as amended 1995). The NCC and country conservation agencies were established in 1990 when JNCC became established (Environmental Protection Act 1990) and took over responsibility for managing the GCR site assessment process, and publishing accounts of accepted sites.
