As an increasing number of geoscientists acquire microcomputers, it becomes evident that most geoscientists do not have time to learn to program or to write programs specific to their professional tasks.

Acting as a worldwide clearing house, GEOWARE solicits descriptions of geoscience software and will publish catalogs of private, commercial, and public domain software descriptions. The catalogs will include the name, address, and phone number of the owner of the software so he may be contacted directly to discuss the software, negotiate for purchase, or arrange for custom programming.

Geoprogrammers are encouraged to contact GEOWARE to receive forms for describing their software.
