Abstract

Open-source software applications, especially those useful for GIS, have been used in the field of geology both in research and teaching at the University of Urbino for decades. The experiences described in this article range from land-surveying cases to cartographic processing and 3D printing of geological models. History of their use and development is punctuated by trials, failures, and slowdowns, but the idea of using digital tools in areas where they are traditionally frowned upon, such as in soil geology, is now rooted in and validated by applications in projects of various types. Although the current situation is not definitive, given that the evolution of information technology provides increasingly faster tools that are performance-oriented and easier to use, this article aims to contribute to the development of methodologies through an exchange of information and experiences.

地理信息系统和其他开源软件在地质制图和建模中的应用:历史和案例研究

开源软件应用程序，特别是那些对地理信息系统有用的应用程序，已经在乌尔比诺大学的地质学领域的研究和教学中使用了几十年。本文描述的经验范围从土地测量案例到制图处理和地质模型的3D打印。数字工具的使用和发展经历了多次试验、失败和减速，但在土壤地质学等传统上不被看好的领域，使用数字工具的想法现在已经在各种类型的项目中得到了扎根和验证。尽管目前的情况还不确定，但鉴于信息技术的发展提供了越来越快的面向性能且更易于使用的工具，本文旨在通过交换信息和经验来促进方法的开发。

期刊介绍： Applied Geomatics (AGMJ) is the official journal of SIFET the Italian Society of Photogrammetry and Topography and covers all aspects and information on scientific and technical advances in the geomatics sciences. The Journal publishes innovative contributions in geomatics applications ranging from the integration of instruments, methodologies and technologies and their use in the environmental sciences, engineering and other natural sciences. The areas of interest include many research fields such as: remote sensing, close range and videometric photogrammetry, image analysis, digital mapping, land and geographic information systems, geographic information science, integrated geodesy, spatial data analysis, heritage recording; network adjustment and numerical processes. Furthermore, Applied Geomatics is open to articles from all areas of deformation measurements and analysis, structural engineering, mechanical engineering and all trends in earth and planetary survey science and space technology. The Journal also contains notices of conferences and international workshops, industry news, and information on new products. It provides a useful forum for professional and academic scientists involved in geomatics science and technology.
