ASTANA, Kazakhstan, April 28. Kazakhstan has
developed an AI-powered interactive map of subsoil resources,
Minister of Industry and Construction Yersayin Nagaspayev said at a
government meeting, Trend reports via the Kazakh government.
According to the minister, large-scale work is underway in the
geological sector to convert archival data into digital format. To
date, more than 97% of primary geological information-around 250
terabytes-has been scanned.
“To accelerate and improve the quality of this work, a system
using artificial intelligence has been developed. It automatically
processes archival materials and generates geological models,”
Nagaspayev said.
He noted that digitized data is being integrated into a unified
Big Data system. Around one terabyte of data has already been
uploaded and is being processed and classified using AI
technologies. Artificial intelligence identifies coordinates and
extracts key data, significantly reducing the time needed for
systematization and improving decision-making quality.
Based on the processed data, an interactive subsoil map has been
created. The system enables users to conveniently filter and
analyze information, as well as quickly identify promising
areas.
Nagaspayev added that AI is also being introduced across all
stages of the construction sector-from design to supervision. In
parallel, work is underway with Kazakhtelecom to use drones for
creating digital twins of cities.
At the design and state examination stages, AI is expected to be
implemented for the verification of BIM projects. In the industrial
sector, AI is already being used for quality control and process
optimization, the minister noted.
