Abstract
BIOLOG is a biostratigraphic database designed for industrial needs. A comprehensive analysis of biostratigraphic data and of their relation ships led to the development of a data model which could be mapped aga inst the POSC EPICENTRE data model. Such a structure allows a reductio n to standardized items ensuring easy data identification, management, and exchange. The data model is illustrated and described, and some t echnical solutions are exposed.
