This is a centre for information and data management in the geopark. It is responsible for planning, collection, analysis and synthesis of data. These useful data are prepared in a manner that allows for easy retrieval and reference. They are integrated with other data to form an information platform to serve the long-term planning and development of the geopark. The data can also be exchanged with partners in the local, municipal, provincial and national authorities. The data also provide valuable information to contractors associated with construction and development projects within the geopark.
