Abstract: Physical geological data is important fundamental and strategic information resources with the characteristic of originality, uniqueness, and non-renewability, and its management and service is the basic requirement and guarantee for the geological work. In order to improve the physical geological data management and service in China and learn experience and practices from international peers, the authors sorted out the related materials and summarized the management and service of physical geological data in the Netherlands. And a series of status were also analyzed, including laws and policies of physical geological data management and service, key physcial geological data storage, cores digitalization, subsurface modelling and public service. Several suggestions for the management and service of physical geological data in China were proposed. ① The core library with perfect function and reasonable layout should be constructed. ② A core laboratory alliance should be set up to integrate resources effectively. ③ The core digitalization technological breakthroughs should be strengthened. ④ The construction of national geospatial database should be accelerated to support the comprehensive utilization and development of subsurface area. This research could provide references for China's physical geological data management and service industries and promote the high-quality development of China's physical geological data management and service.
