Beginning August 1989, a triggered digital recording system was implemented that captured data for larger events but did not provide continuous digital recording. From August 1999 through July 2000, paper seismograms were the only source of continuous seismic data for Montana¿s Regional Seismic Network. This network includes data from 35 recording stations operated by the MBMG as well as data from 7 USGS stations located in Montana and operated cooperatively with the MBMG. Continuous digital data recorded since August 15, 2001 is archived at the Incorporated Research Institutions for Seismology (IRIS) Data Management Center using a SEED data format. Daily electronic seismograms may be accessed by the general public...

The Earthquake Studies Office (ESO) of the Montana Bureau of Mines and Geology opened in June, 1980 to operate the Montana Regional Seismograph Network. The office collects and analyzes seismic data and reports earthquake information. The ESO also collects and stores seismograms recorded in Montana by other groups and agencies. Prior to 1989, the only method used to collect earthquake data was paper seismograms recorded on drum recorders using pen and ink, or heat pen and heat-sensitive paper. Thus, paper seismograms recorded before 1989 are original (and irreplaceable) records. Beginning August 1989, a triggered digital recording system was implemented that captured data for larger events but did not provide continuous...

The Mineral Museum collection is estimated to contain over 15,000 fine mineral specimens from throughout the world, of which over 1,300 are on display. The collection is protected by an electronic security system. Stored specimens are catalogued (in hardcopy format and on an Excel spreadsheet)using the Hey system and maintained in a secure specimen storage room. Donated specimens are reviewed by the museum curator (a senior MBMG geologist) and accessioned as appropriate. The collection is supported primarily by Bureau funding. Fine mineral specimensIf resources were to become available (funding and staffing), it would be desirable to: 1. the completion of an updated and accurate inventory of specimens in an electronic...

Water well logs are maintained in the MBMG’s Ground-Water Information Center (GWIC). The collection currently includes approximately 250,000 records (both in hard copy and digital formats) describing water-related resources (wells, boreholes, springs, etc.) in Montana. The paper collection is stored in the GWIC offices at the Bureau. The electronic data is stored on an SQL server and is available over the internet at http://mbmggwic.mtech.edu/. In addition to well log data, GWIC is also actively collecting and maintaining: 33,300 water-quality analyses from 14,700 sites, 2.3 million historic water-level records from 12,300 sites, as well as field-inventory and aquifer-test data.
