Formational basis of the theory for information support of geological activity

The elaboration of a theory for information support of R&D, connected with geological medium management (ISRDGMM) in necessary in relation to global trend of digital, technological and social-economic transformation of the world community functioning. The purpose of investigation is to present theories principles of information supervision (support) for investigations and works on geological medium management.

The methodology is based upon the introducing a formation analysis into all phases of ISRDGMM. The introducing of this methodology resulted in development of predictive-reconstructive geological information complex for modeling of geological medium management. This complex comprises three cognitive–functional levels: general methodological basis, target oriented methodological-methodic elaboration and methodic ISRDGMM complex. The novelty of this scientific approach consists in presenting a new approach for ISRDGMM basing upon specific theoretic schemes considering formational algorithms. Authors consider this scheme as universal one, controlling all the areas of mankind geological activity.

The realization of theoretic principles has been demonstrated by a number of specific examples of author's projects, aimed at main directions of geological medium use and protection (useful minerals use, underground and nearsurface repositories construction and exploitation, mining and polluted territories management, etc. The prospects of ISRDGMM theory further development are marked in.
