据美国《世界采矿》去年8月间介绍,芬兰地质调查局安装了一台小型计算机,作为全国矿物调查的辅助设备.这是一台休利特-帕卡德-3000型电子计算机,处理在岩石、地球物理、地球化学和水文等探测中收集的大量数据和现场勘探结果.该计算机可获得较好的数据,据此可以确定在已选定的地点探获未知矿床,并可减少投资.航测中,飞机上的仪器大约可以搜集十种地球物理参数以及时间、高度和航行等数据.然后,这些信息经小型计算机处理并与地表取样数据结合,最后由计算机画出 According to the United States “World Mining” introduced in August last year, the Finnish Geological Survey installed a small computer, as a national mineral survey auxiliary equipment, which is a Hewlett-Packard-3000-type computer processing Rock mass, geophysics, geochemistry and hydrology, etc. The computer provides better data on which to locate unknown deposits in selected locations and to reduce investment. In the aerial survey, the instruments on the plane can collect about ten kinds of geophysical parameters as well as data such as time, altitude and navigation, etc. These informations are then processed by a small computer and combined with the surface sampling data and finally drawn by a computer
