Abstract
A database system is being developed that both stores archival geothermal data and supports geothermal reservoir modeling calculations. The database maintains field data and helps to organize and review input and output data from calculations. The initial design is based on GEOSYS, a geothermal database system originally developed for Unix workstations, which is being redesigned, extended to support calculations, and converted to Microsoft Windows (95/98/NT). Development costs are being reduced through incorporation of database technology, development tools, and third party components that are available for Windows. The use of ActiveX Data Objects (ADO) allows the system to run using a local Microsoft Access database or a client-server relational database such as Oracle or SQL server with no changes to code.
