On the second day of the 55th IAGI Annual Scientific Meeting & GEOSEA XIX Convention & Exhibition 2026, held on Wednesday, November 4, 2026, the Center for Mineral, Coal, and Geothermal Resources (PSDMBP), Geological Agency, Ministry of Energy and Mineral Resources (ESDM), introduced the GeoRIMA (Geological Resources of Indonesia Multiplatform Application).

The presentation was delivered by Bonny W. Nugraha. During his presentation, Bonny explained that GeoRIMA is a geological information application developed and managed by PSDMBP. Initially developed as an Android mobile application, GeoRIMA was subsequently made available as a website to broaden public access to information on the potential of mineral, coal, and geothermal resources throughout Indonesia.

Bonny further explained that GeoRIMA can be accessed through the website georima.esdm.go.id and the Android mobile application. The platform provides several key features, including maps showing the distribution of mineral, coal, and geothermal resource potential and reserves in Indonesia; resource and reserve statistics by province and regency; a search feature for identifying commodity potential in specific areas; a commodity information library; access to PSDMBP exploration and investigation studies; and facilities for downloading mineral, coal, and geothermal resource balance books.

In his presentation, Bonny also outlined opportunities for cooperation through GeoRIMA with institutions both within Indonesia and abroad. These opportunities include exchanging data on the potential and statistics of mineral, coal, and geothermal resources among institutions, as well as collaborating on geological investigations and studies with partner geological institutions overseas. In addition, GeoRIMA can support capacity building through knowledge exchange on spatial data and geological resource information systems.

Other opportunities for cooperation include data integration and the development of cross-border geospatial information systems, as well as the use of GeoRIMA as an information source for investment planning and mineral resource policy formulation. These collaborative efforts are expected to expand geological information exchange and support the use of data by various stakeholders.

Bonny also introduced the development of GeoRIMA 2, which is designed to improve the presentation of mineral, coal, and geothermal resource potential and reserves down to the regency level. The development includes regional resource and reserve information, statistical features that allow users to examine resource and reserve trends across multiple editions of the resource balance, and automated regional data analysis based on resource balance data.

For example, GeoRIMA 2 presents resource potential and reserves across 682 locations in South Kalimantan. Its enhanced statistical features allow users to view data from three editions of the resource balance, with resource and reserve trends for each commodity displayed side by side. The platform also generates a 16-page regional data analysis document for a presentation on Tanah Laut Regency, automatically compiled from resource balance data. These developments are expected to improve access to and use of geological information by stakeholders in support of research, planning, investment, and policymaking.

Following the presentation, Joko Iskandar conducted a demonstration of the GeoRIMA. During the session, participants and visitors were introduced to the application's various features and shown how to access and explore geological resource potential information according to their needs. The demonstration was followed by a question-and-answer session, giving participants and visitors the opportunity to learn more about using GeoRIMA as an information platform for Indonesia's mineral, coal, and geothermal resources.

 GeoRIMA dalam Kegiatan IAGI-GEOSEA 2026

Pada hari kedua dalam rangkaian kegiatan 55th IAGI Annual Scientific Meeting & GEOSEA XIX Convention & Exhibition 2026, Rabu (4/11/2026), Pusat Sumber Daya Mineral, Batubara, dan Panas Bumi (PSDMBP), Badan Geologi, Kementerian Energi dan Sumber Daya Mineral (ESDM), memperkenalkan aplikasi GeoRIMA (Geological Resources of Indonesia Multiplatform Application).

Presentasi GeoRIMA disampaikan oleh Bonny W. Nugraha. Dalam presentasinya, Bonny W menjelaskan bahwa GeoRIMA merupakan aplikasi informasi geologi yang dikembangkan dan dikelola oleh PSDMBP. Aplikasi ini mulanya dikembangkan dalam bentuk aplikasi mobile berbasis Android dan kemudian tersedia pula dalam versi website untuk memperluas akses masyarakat terhadap informasi potensi sumber daya mineral, batubara, dan panas bumi di seluruh Indonesia.

Bonny selanjutnya menjelaskan bahwa GeoRIMA dapat diakses melalui website georima.esdm.go.id maupun aplikasi mobile Android. Platform ini menyediakan sejumlah fitur utama, yaitu peta sebaran potensi dan cadangan mineral, batubara, dan panas bumi di Indonesia; statistik sumber daya dan cadangan berdasarkan provinsi dan kabupaten; menu pencarian potensi komoditas pada suatu wilayah; pustaka informasi komoditas; akses terhadap hasil kajian penyelidikan PSDMBP; dan fasilitas untuk mengunduh buku neraca sumber daya mineral, batubara, dan panas bumi.

Dalam presentasinya, Bonny juga menguraikan peluang kerja sama yang dapat dikembangkan melalui GeoRIMA, baik dengan lembaga di dalam maupun luar negeri. Kerja sama tersebut mencakup pertukaran data potensi dan statistik sumber daya mineral, batubara, dan panas bumi antarinstansi serta kolaborasi penyelidikan dan kajian geologi dengan lembaga geologi mitra di luar negeri. Selain itu, GeoRIMA dapat mendukung peningkatan kapasitas melalui pertukaran pengetahuan mengenai data spasial dan sistem informasi sumber daya geologi.

Peluang kerja sama lainnya meliputi integrasi data dan pengembangan sistem informasi geospasial lintas negara serta pemanfaatan GeoRIMA sebagai salah satu basis informasi dalam perencanaan investasi dan penyusunan kebijakan sumber daya mineral. Pengembangan kerja sama tersebut diharapkan dapat memperluas pertukaran informasi geologi dan mendukung pemanfaatan data oleh berbagai pemangku kepentingan.

Bonny turut memperkenalkan pengembangan GeoRIMA 2 yang dirancang untuk meningkatkan penyajian informasi potensi dan cadangan sumber daya mineral, batubara, dan panas bumi hingga tingkat kabupaten. Pengembangan tersebut mencakup penyajian potensi dan cadangan berdasarkan wilayah, statistik yang memungkinkan pengguna melihat tren sumber daya dan cadangan dari beberapa edisi neraca, serta analisis data wilayah yang dapat disusun secara otomatis berdasarkan data neraca.

Dalam GeoRIMA 2, misalnya, disajikan potensi dan cadangan per wilayah di Kalimantan Selatan sebanyak 682 lokasi, statistik yang lebih tajam berupa 3 edisi neraca dengan tren sumber daya dan cadangan tiap komoditas tersaji berdampingan, dan analisis data wilayah sebanyak 16 halaman untuk bahan paparan Kabupaten Tanah Laut yang tersusun secara otomatis dari neraca. Pengembangan ini diharapkan meningkatkan kemudahan akses dan pemanfaatan informasi geologi bagi para pemangku kepentingan dalam mendukung penelitian, perencanaan, investasi, dan pengambilan kebijakan.

Setelah sesi presentasi, kegiatan dilanjutkan dengan demonstrasi aplikasi GeoRIMA oleh Joko Iskandar. Dalam sesi ini, peserta dan pengunjung diperkenalkan secara langsung dengan berbagai fitur aplikasi serta cara mengakses dan menelusuri informasi potensi sumber daya geologi sesuai kebutuhan. Demonstrasi tersebut kemudian dilanjutkan dengan sesi tanya jawab yang memberikan kesempatan kepada peserta dan pengunjung untuk menggali lebih jauh pemanfaatan GeoRIMA sebagai platform informasi sumber daya mineral, batubara, dan panas bumi di Indonesia.
