Abstract: This paper presents a project under deployment inside the company Centrais Elétricas de Santa Catarina – CELESC, for the development of a model intended to process information related to geothermal energy generation, in the state of Santa Catarina, Brazil. In this model, are being used techniques for knowledge management and engineering over 3D geo-referenced data. The state of Santa Catarina has known to have a great geothermal potential, with initially five geographic areas specifically identified to apply processes for heat extraction. The development of a model directed to the geothermal energy field will bring immediate benefits to the state, like a clean and sustainable energetic matrix. [Copyright &y& Elsevier]
