摘要: 全球沉积岩数据库(简称SEDBA)在UNESCO-IGCP和IUGS支持下,由IGCP 269项目设计建成。建立SEDBA的目的是实现对全球沉积岩数据的存储、管理、检索和利用,以促进信息的国际交流和全球地质对比研究的开展。

Abstract: A global database in sedimentary petrology(SEDBA)was developed by IGCP Project 269 under the support of UNESCO-IGCP and IUGS. The author analized the significance of estab-lishing SEDBA,introduced the main achievement of IGCP Project 269 and described the charac-teristics and functions of SEDBA. According to the suggestion of sedimentologists at home and abroad,the author also proposed an imagine on developing SEDBA in the future,that is to de-velop the application of SEDBA in geosciences by realizing the connection and communication within different databases and by using the connected databases to solve actual geological prob-lems.
