Greenland geo-information is easily available on
the web. This Fact Sheet presents some main
sources providing access to different types of data
and information. They are all under continued
expansion through co-operation between the

GMOM
GMOM is an online version of a dynamic Greenland
Mineral Occurrence Map. The facility runs in ArcIMS GIS
and gives access to maps of Greenland showing posi-
tions of mineral occurrences plotted on different back-
grounds such as topography, geology, geochemistry and
geophysics. The maps can be manipulated using stan-
dard GIS operations. The database behind the map
holds information about some 700-800 sites (January
2009) and a subset of the attributes can be used for
searches based on e.g. area, commodity, etc. For all

DODEX
An on-line database of company reports open to the
public. The database is presently being build by quality
controlled scanning of documents and will by the end
of 2009 hold all company mineral reports in GEUS'
archives, handed in by companies, which have been
active in exploration in Greenland. Confidential titles
and information is of course not available to outside
users. The database can be searched alphanumerically
and geographically. Pdf-files of the reports, including
maps, figures and tables can be read directly on-screen
or be downloaded via a ftp-server, free of charge.

expanded and updated. New sites are added to
GMOM, company reports and later relevant
report/publications from GEUS will be added to

Concluding remarks
If you are interested in exploration in Greenland,
please bookmark these web-sites. As they are all
still under construction, you may occasionally need
to contact GEUS to obtain the reports you require.
For instance, if the report you would like to see in
DODEX still has not been released as a quality
controlled pdf-file, we will prioritise this report in
the processing and get it to you as fast as possible.
