AI is reshaping geosciences. But what's working, what's not, and what should concern us?

Join Gerard Schuster (University of Utah) for The Good, the Bad, and the Ugly with AI in Geosciences, the 2026 SEG North America Honorary Lecture, coming to Mexico this September and October.

From accelerating seismic interpretation and fault detection to the risks of overfitting, data bias, and black-box models, this lecture takes an honest look at where AI is delivering real value in geosciences and where caution is still needed.

The Asia Pacific Summit on Drone Geophysics is now accepting abstracts, and your research deserves to be heard.

This four-day virtual conference brings together researchers, engineers, scientists, and students from across the region for scientific talks, panels, and community discussion at the forefront of drone-based geophysical science.

Whether you are developing novel sensors, exploring new applications, or just beginning to push this field in a new direction, this is your stage. Have a case study to share? We want to hear that too.

This year SEG is hosting two editions of the virtual Summit on Drone Geophysics. Register for one and you get access to the recordings for both.

Abstracts close 1 October. Submit yours: https://go.seg.org/3T4QAYm

Geophysical methods are proven tools for geological disaster monitoring, but inconsistent data interpretation and the lack of standardized outputs have limited their real-world application.

Join Lucien Pan, Technical Director at Geomative Co., Ltd., for Construction of Online Multi-Parameter Geophysical Monitoring System and Standardized Achievement Output for Geological Disaster Scenarios, a one-hour virtual session exploring standardized processing and unified output methods for multi-parameter geophysical monitoring data.

Critical minerals are at the center of the global energy transition and geophysics is key to finding them.

The Critical Minerals Forum brings together geophysicists, geologists, and exploration professionals for three days of imaging, integration, and evaluation techniques focused on critical mineral systems.

The preliminary program is now live. Hear from keynote speakers Patrick Redmond (GeologicAI), Anne Thompson (PetraScience Consultants), and Jamey Jones (U.S. Geological Survey), alongside technical presentations, a poster session, and networking receptions across three full days in Vancouver.
