The management of physical geological data is a statutory duty of the natural resources authorities and collection organizations. Due to historical reasons, the management of physical geological data in Chongqing has lagged behind since it became a municipality directly under the Central Government. In recent years, the screening of physical geological data has been carried out at different levels. The variety and quantity of physical geological data have shown an increasing trend. The extensive and decentralized storage in geological exploration units and field work sites no longer meets the new situation, and it is urgent to standardize management. This paper mainly discusses the current situation of the management of physical geological data in Chongqing, expounds the difficulties that need to be solved urgently in the management of physical geological data, and puts forward relevant countermeasures, such as strengthening the construction of physical geological data collection organization, streamlining the management system of physical geological data, implementing the special funds for physical geological data management, and preparing the collection plan of physical geological data in Chongqing, to provide reference for promoting the management of physical geological data in Chongqing.
