Metis

Metis is IGI's developing geochemistry data management solution. Metis is being developed in partnership with three large oil and gas E&P companies, and will provide a unique system for acquiring, quality controlling and managing geochemical data.

Unlike p:IGI the focus of Metis is corporate data management. Thus the Metis system consists of several components including a database server to enable company wide, centralised access to corporate geochemistry data as well as application to help get data efficiently into the central database.

A key component in the system is Metis Transform, which is a tool developed to facilitate efficient data import, merge and quality control of geochemical data, while automatically capturing provenance data to ensure users can determine the source of data, thus engendering trust.
