This paper reviewed the key features of non-seismic exploration domain software developed by oil companies and mining companies in such foreign countries as Canada, Australia, the United States and Britain as well as by research institutes, colleges and universities and geological exploration units in China. On the basis of a comparative analysis of the Geosoft's Oasis montaj and AGRS's software like AirProbe, the authors hold that the development direction of non-seismic geophysical software is integration, platformization, parallelization, visualization and internationalization.
