Profile

GEOVARIANCES is a French Independent Software Vendor and the world leader in GEOSTATISTICS.

We provide geostatistics-related software packages and consulting services all around the world to the:

GEOVARIANCES was founded in 1986 by 3 engineers from the Centre de Géostatistique at the Ecole des Mines de Paris in France to market geostatistical software packages to an industrial clientele worldwide.

Today it is a multi-disciplinary team of highly qualified programmers and engineers with backgrounds in geostatistics, geology, geophysics and the environment.

An international network made up of graduates from the Ecole des Mines de Paris and locally-based consultants provides the foundations for our development.

Being a human-scale company allows us to be highly responsive and to continually adapt to both changes in the market and market needs in an extremely efficient way.

R&D

While bridging the gap between industry and research, a close partnership with the Centre de Géostatistique in Fontainebleau (at the Ecole des Mines de Paris) - where, during the fifties, professor Georges Matheron gave birth to the concept of this new science - ensures that our different products remain at the cutting edge of technology.
