CLM - Hydraulic conductivity NSW

## **Abstract** 

The dataset was derived by the Bioregional Assessment Programme from multiple source datasets. The source datasets are identified in the Lineage field in this metadata statement. The processes undertaken to produce this derived dataset are described in the History field in this metadata statement. 



This dataset contains the hydraulic conductivity and transmissivity data for the NSW part of the Clarence-Moreton Basin. The data were organized by geological formations. The data were sourced from the NSW state groundwater databases. Most records in the pumping test database do not have a hydraulic conductivity entry. The hydraulic conductivity was derived from the pumping test data by a two-step method to support the groundwater modelling: (i) transmissivity was estimated from the original test readings using the TGUESS approach; and (ii) hydraulic conductivity was calculated based on the estimated transmissivity and the screen information. The estimated hydraulic conductivity was mainly available for the alluvium and volcanics and varies in a range of six orders of magnitude.

## **Dataset History** 

This dataset was created through the following process:



1. Filter the data using the spatial extent of the Clarence-Moreton Basin;

2. Data quality check;

3. Calculate transmissivity using the TGUESS approach;

4. Compute hydraulic conductivity using the calculated transmissivity and the screen information in the state database;

5. Aquifer assignment.

1 second SRTM derived water bodies mask

## **Abstract** 

This dataset and its metadata statement were supplied to the Bioregional Assessment Programme by a third party and are presented here as originally supplied.



The dataset defines water bodies across the Australian continent. See 'UserGuideforSRTM-DerivedDEMs.pdf' stored with dataset for more detailed information.

## **Purpose** 

The water bodies mask should be used to determine whether any cell belongs to the land or a water body, rather than relying on elevation values above or below zero. The water bodies mask is 1 for all water bodies (including the ocean) and NODATA for land cells. These masks have been derived from the SRTM Water Body Data (SWBD), which identifies water bodies as ocean, lake or river with relatively arbitrary boundaries between river and ocean in estuaries.

## **Dataset History** 

The original SRTM elevation data was prepared using 'edit rules', which specified (amongst other things) that land areas adjacent to water bodies are at least 1 m above the water level; note that the original SRTM data was in integer form so the 1 m increment was the smallest possible. Any land elevations that were equal to or lower than the adjacent water elevations were raised to 1 m above the water elevation. Land cells immediately adjacent to the coast were therefore at least 1 m in elevation, although cells further inland can have lower elevations.

The modifications to the SRTM elevations to remove stripes, remove offsets due to trees, reduce noise and enforce drainage have induced changes to elevations that may result in lower elevations, raising the possibility of logically inconsistent land elevations lower than the adjacent water elevations. The DSM and DEM have had a modified version of the edit rules applied to ensure that land areas adjacent to coast are at least 0.01 m. Note again that the edit rules only apply to cells immediately adjacent to the coast, so cells further inland can have negative elevations. In some cases this is due to over-estimation of vegetation heights, in other cases it is due to the original SRTM data.

The edit rules were not applied after the adaptive smoothing to produce DEM-S so there are some areas where land elevations adjacent to water bodies (including the ocean) are lower than the adjacent water elevations.

In DEM-H, ocean areas have been set to 'NODATA', water bodies have not been re-flattened and the edit rules have not been applied to avoid corrupting the hydrological enforcement. As a result, there are some areas immediately adjacent to the coast with elevations below zero.

CLM - NSW River Gauge pdf documents.

## **Abstract** 

This dataset was supplied to the Bioregional Assessment Programme by a third party and is presented here as originally supplied. The metadata was not provided by the data supplier and has been compiled by the programme based on known details. 



This dataset contains NSW river gauges that occur within the Clarence-Moreton Bioregion.

## **Dataset History** 

The river gauge data has been downloaded from the NSW Department of Primary Industries Office of Water database and stored in PDF documents in this dataset. No specific history detail downloaded with the PDF files. Go to the following web site for more information: at:http://realtimedata.water.nsw.gov.au/water.stm



PDF documents containing river gauge data are missing for a few of the locations. In order to create retrospective datasets for these locations the data was downloaded from the NSW Department of Primary Industries Office of Water database on 12/11/2014 and analysed for the same period as in the original tables. Some values differ slightly (<5%) from the original reported values. These differences are likely due to application of more recently collected and applied discharge rating data and subsequent QA/QC on data. Data flagged with the quality code 130 (Not quality coded - subject to change) are included in the calculations and are another likely source of the slight differences in values.

Unsaturated Great Artesian Basin Aquifer - PED

## **Abstract** 

This dataset and its metadata statement were supplied to the Bioregional Assessment Programme by a third party and are presented here as originally supplied.

It describes areas of Great Artesian Basin (JK) Aquifer to be interpreted as unsaturated (dry).

## **Purpose** 

To represent the unsaturated areas of the Great Artesian Basin.

## **Dataset History** 

This file was developed along with a number of data sets as part of the Australian Government funded research program entitled "Allocating Water and Maintaining Springs in the GAB". http://archive.nwc.gov.au/library/topic/groundwater/allocating-water-and-maintaining-springs-in-the-great-artesian-basin. This file was developed by comparing the bottom of JK aquifer horizon (RL mAHD) to that of the uncorrected potentiometric surface of groundwater for the same aquifer (RL mAHD). Where the two were equal, this was interpreted to be the boundary between saturated and unsaturated groundwater conditions within the JK Aquifer. Areas where the potentiometric surface was interpreted to be lower than the base of the JK aquifer were included within polygons representative of unsaturated (dry) aquifer. The specific datafiles used to develop this layer include:
