ArcGIS play tool specialist GIS-pax has announced a new business partnership with exploration decision support leader GeoKnowledge that will facilitate integrated map-based assessment of plays and play fairways. The solution will streamline the linking of regional play fairway maps for the quantification of yet-to-find potential in part-plays and designated areas of interest. GIS-pax will develop and maintain links to GeoKnowledge’s GeoX ArcGIS plug-in. GeoKnowledge will further enhance the plug-in to broaden the scope of the map-based assessment applications that are supported. The solutions will leverage the GeoX functionality that supports effective access to all data in the GeoX database. "We are delighted to partner with the premier supplier of ArcGIS play analysis tools and solutions" said GeoKnowledge CEO Per Audun Hole. "The integration between GeoX and the GIS-pax Player ArcGIS toolset will provide existing and new clients an effective platform for map-based play analysis and play assessment. The combined offering supports better decisions through rapid, consistent and robust stochastic assessment of regional risks and the uncertain yet-to-find potential". According to GIS-pax CEO Ian Longley, "This non-exclusive collaboration provides a basis for a unique offering that we anticipate will not only meet the needs of many of our existing clients, but will also promote and support modern map-based play assessment for new groups of GeoX users worldwide. We see this alliance as evidence that GIS-pax is the global leader in map-enabled play-based evaluation software and that working with GeoKnowledge, a highly respected global leader in resource evaluation software, will provide clients with the best-in class tools that they need to identify, assess and mature conventional and unconventional exploration opportunities”.
