The system of thematic classification of an integrated databank of geological research considering polydisciplinarity.

Questions about the construction of linguistic tools of an integrated databank on geology on a unified basis considering the polydisciplinarity and comparison of generally adopted information retrieval languages are examined. A system model of thematic classification for the integration of heterogeneous geological information on the basis of research problems is offered. Using the example of the common rubricators at the bibliographic (VINITI rubricator of the Russian Academy of Sciences) and factographic levels (VSEGEI dictionaries) generalized models are presented, viz., the organization of a thematic polydisciplinary space, the integration of geoecological data, and the thematic classifications of radiogeological data, volcanic danger, and mineralogical-planetological subjects.
