1890 graduate Saint St. Petersburg Mining Institute.
1909-1913 directed official triangulation of Donets Basin which, during planning of mining operations in pits of Donbas, served as basis for transition to a general system of coordinates for the whole basin, known as "Baumann System of Coordinates”. Devised simple method for determining position of two points in relation to two given points, often used for orientation in mine surveying. Worked out geometrical classification of progressive rock displacement.
Introduced new, simple rules for calculating reserves of useful minerals ("Bauman’s Izogips Method" and "Bauman’s Formula”). Amended and improved magnctometric method of prospecting for magnetic ores.
