Abstract:

Geochemical field sampling is a critical component of geochemical exploration. There has long been a significant lack of specialized software support for information technology in geochemical field sampling. With the rapid development of information technology, traditional field geochemical survey models are accelerating their transformation towards intelligence, convenience, and modernization. Therefore, it has become an inevitable trend to informatize the entire process of geochemical field sample collection. This article systematically summarizes the key development directions and core technical characteristics of geochemical field investigations and geological survey informatization based on the latest progress in geological survey informatization both domestically and internationally. It also delves into the functional requirements and characteristics of future geochemical field survey systems. The research aims to promote the digitalization and informatization of geochemical field sample collection, laying the foundation for constructing an information product system that covers the entire geochemical exploration process while also enhancing the overall service capacity of geological survey informatization. This will ultimately help establish a product system for the informatization of the entire geochemical exploration process and improve the quality of geological survey informatization services.

Key words: geochemical exploration, geochemical field sampling, informatization, mobile GIS, integration of internal and external work
