But the system was very slow and didn't allow for searching on multiple sample values. Prior to contracting with IT Solutions, the Coal and Organic Petrology Labs maintained a Microsoft Access database with a Web site interface for searching.
Along with the samples are hundreds of data points on each to provide coal researchers and students with vital details on this natural resource and to assist in the selection of coals for their research. Since 1950, the Energy Institute's Coal and Organic Petrology Labs has maintained coal samples from states across the country, with the current samples numbering over 1,400 from 26 states. Located within the university's College of Earth and Mineral Sciences (EMS), the Energy Institute was first established as The Combustion Laboratory in 1949, and today is committed to the development of clean energy technologies that will assist the nation in meeting its growing energy demands.
The EMS Energy Institute at Penn State is a leading research and development organization focused on energy science and engineering.
