Use in Geothermal Exploration

"GIS is used to compile all available geological, geochemical, and geophysical information for a given area of interest. Spatial and temporal relationships can then be identified and examined to potentially identify a geothermal resource. A georeferenced database that includes existing infrastructure (transmission lines, roads, etc.) can be used to prioritize potential geothermal exploration areas." cannot be used as a page name in this wiki.
