heal.abstract	This thesis presents the design and implementation of a user-centric interface for the Open Geoscientific Data Portal (Geoportal), developed under the auspices of the Hellenic Survey of Geology and Mineral Exploration (HSGME). The primary aim is to create a comprehensive and accessible platform for the visualization and analysis of geological data. This endeavor extends beyond HSGME’s specific needs, aiming to establish a broader framework for developing effective interfaces for geological data depiction. The project began with an in-depth analysis of user needs, followed by the application of established user interface (UI) and user experience (UX) principles tailored to geospatial data. Advanced tools such as ArcGIS Pro, ArcGIS Enterprise, and ArcGIS Experience Builder were utilized to create a scalable and secure platform capable of managing extensive and complex geological datasets. Usability testing demonstrated the interface’s ability to accommodate users of varying technical expertise, offering intuitive navigation and interactive exploration of thematic layers. The application’s deployment on ArcGIS Server ensured high performance and scalability, making it suitable for a wide range of users and geospatial analyses. Additionally, the project incorporates innovative approaches for data accessibility and visual representation, with a strong focus on user customization and adaptability. This work significantly contributes to the geoscientific field by providing a robust solution for geological data visualization and analysis. Its adaptable framework serves as a prototype for future developments in geospatial interfaces, aiming to enhance accessibility, support decision-making, and promote sustainable resource management.	en
