In Russia will launch a single digital register of mineral deposits

Russia plans to launch a unified digital register of natural resources. Information on deposits, mineral reserves and geological exploration results will be stored on one platform.

To process this amount of data, 30 artificial intelligence agents will be used. The project is expected to be fully deployed within two years, now it is at the stage of implementing AI.

According to the newspaper “Vedomosti”, the developer of the platform is VK Tech. The digital register should complement the existing data system of the Unified Fund for Geological Information on Subsoil (EFGI) on the basis of the Russian Geological Fund.

It now holds about 25 petabytes of hydrocarbon and solid mineral information. It is planned that AI agents will be able to analyze data, bring them to a single machine-readable standard, organize them for joint work of state and corporate structures.
