Preface
        14 -18 October 2019, Vernadsky State Geological Museum of RAS, Moscow (Russia) hosted the V
International Conference "Information Technologies for Earth Sciences and Applications for Geology,
Mining Industry and Economics. ITES&MP-2019"
        Conference ITES&MP-2019 represents an extension of the ITES Conference (Modern Information
Technologies in Earth Sciences: Magadan 2008; Vladivostok 2010, Petropavlovsk-Kamchatsky 2014,
Yuzhno-Skhalinsk 2016) and Mineral Prospectivity Conference (Orleans, France 2017) targeting the issues
related with data organization, management, and analysis in Earth Sciences. The new conference inherits
ITES and Mineral Prospectivity Conference headlines and intends to keep and develop the ITES and
Mineral Prospectivity Conference participants’ community formed in the last ten years of successful work.
        Exponential expansion of data, methods and processing systems in practically each field of Earth
Sciences and also realization of the information technologies role in these fields motivate the organizers.
        Conference topics:
     • Open access to scientific data and knowledge in Earth Sciences.
     • Data peculiarities in Earth Sciences: new concepts and methods, tools for their collection,
         integration and processing in different information systems, including systems with intensive use
         of data.
     • Data mining and mathematical simulation of natural processes in Earth Sciences. Evolution of
         classical GIS-applications in Earth Sciences.
     • Application to Critical Raw Materials (CRM); social aspects of mining (e.g., the Social License to
         Operate [SLO]); predictive mapping and applications to exploration, landuse and search for
         extensions of known deposits.
     • Intelligent data analysis, elicitation of facts and knowledge from scientific publications.
         Thesauruses, ontologies and conceptual modeling. Semantic WEB, linked data. Services. Content
         semantic structuring. Applications for geosciences, e.g., Ontology-based Dynamic Decision
         Graphs for Expert systems and decision-aid tools.
     • Application of methods and technologies of the remote sensing in Earth Sciences: from satellites
         to unmanned aerial vehicles.
     • Information technologies for demonstration and popularization of scientific achievements in Earth
         Sciences.
      • Applications: environmental risks including mining wastes, natural hazards, water resource
         management, etc.
        Participated in the Conference: more than 100 participants from 8 countries: Russia, France,
Armenia, Kazakhstan, the Republic of South Africa, Egypt, Tanzania, Sri Lanka, including from 15 cities
of the Russian Federation: Moscow, St. Petersburg, Novosibirsk, Krasnoyarsk, Irkutsk, Vladivostok,
Magadan, Khanty-Mansiysk, Perm, Apatite, Barnaul, Kemerovo, Fryazino, Arkhangelsk, Tver. BRGM
staff took an active part in the Conference.
        During the three days of the Conference, 70 reports were made on various topics related to the themes
of the Conference.
        The meetings of the Conference were broadcast live on the Internet.
      The Program Committee expresses their gratitude to the support Conference of the Embassy of France
in Russia, sponsorship of companies: MicroMine, Intel, Softline and International organizations: IAGOD,
SGA and SEG.
