Gippsland 2D Infill 2015 Marine Seismic Survey, (GA-0352) - High Resolution Bathymetry Grids

Geoscience Australia conducted a marine seismic survey (GA-0352) over poorly defined areas of the Gippsland Basin between 5th of April to the 24th of April 2015. The aim was to acquire industry-standard precompetitive 2D seismic data, Multi-beam echo-sounder (MBES) and sub-bottom profiling (SBP) data to support an assessment of the CO2 storage potential of the basin. The survey, undertaken as part of the Department of Industry and Science's National CO2 Infrastructure Plan (NCIP), aimed to identify and characterise indicators of natural hydrocarbon or fluid seepage that may indicate compromised seal integrity in the region. The data collected during this survey will enhance sequence stratigraphic studies in the Gippsland Basin that provide constraints on the most suitable areas for storage of CO2 and help to identify potential CO2 storage reservoirs. The survey was conducted by Gardline CGG vessel MV Duke 
The data collected during the survey are available for free download from the Geoscience Australia website.
This dataset include all the bathymetry data collected during the survey.

Electricity consumption benchmarks

Electricity consumption benchmarks – Survey responses matched with household consumption data for 25 households 

The AER is required to update electricity consumption benchmarks (available on www.energymadeeasy.gov.au) at least every three years. The benchmarks were initially developed in 2011. The update of the benchmarks is currently being undertaken, and this is a small subset of the data. Once the study is finalised, the whole dataset will be made available via www.data.gov.au.  

This data is made up of two elements:

1.	Responses to a survey from 25 Victorian householders about their energy consumption (shown in the tab ‘questionnaire responses’).

2.	Energy consumption data (in Watt Hours (WH)) for each household in the sample from 1 April 2012 to 31 March 2014 (or such time as data are available after the installation of a smart meter). E_0000_WH refers to WH usage in the half hour commencing 12am. The column TYPE shows the type of usage. There are three types – general, controlled load (where the household has a dedicated circuit for a specific appliance, such as hot water) and generation (where the household has solar panels, this shows the WH exported to the grid from the solar panels - note that electricity generated and used within the house is not measured). 

There is also a word document titled ‘questionnaire’, which shows the survey questions. The corresponding question number in the spreadsheet shows the data for that question.

Emerald Trail within Cardinia Council

Shapefile of Emerald trail

This multi purpose trail links Emerald, Cockatoo and Gembrook.

The Emerald to Cockatoo section of the trail, which is 6.2 kilometres long and passes through Emerald Lake Park and Wrights State Forest, has existed for some time. This section of the trail was previously called the Emerald to Cockatoo Trail.

Another 6.5 kilometre section from McBride Street, Cockatoo to Gembrook Station has been added to the trail. The new trail section follows Belgrave-Gembrook Road, Fielder Road and the Puffing Billy train line between the towns to create a unique and scenic path suitable for cycling, running and walking.

The entire 13 kilometre trail from Emerald to Gembrook is now called the Eastern Dandenong Ranges trail.

Employment Pathway Fund Evaluation

The Employment Pathway Fund is a major element of the Job Services Australia service delivery model. It is a flexible pool of funds, which JSA providers use to assist job seekers to overcome their vocational and non-vocational barriers to employment. These reports examine the use of the Employment Pathway Fund by JSA providers in the first two years of the Job Services Australia contract period from July 2009, including how Employment Pathway Fund expenditure is being targeted and looking in more detail at some common types of assistance.

This service includes all the bathymetry data collected during the survey, with the data also available as a free download from the Geoscience Australia website.

The aim of the survey was to acquire industry-standard precompetitive 2D seismic data, Multi-beam echo-sounder (MBES) and sub-bottom profiling (SBP) data to support an assessment of the CO2 storage potential of the basin.

Evaluation of the Effect of the Global Economic Downturn on Job Services Australia 2009-2012

This report provides an evaluation of the impact of changing economic conditions on Job Services Australia (JSA) from 1 July 2009 to January 2010 as specified in the JSA evaluation strategy. The major goal of this project is to assess the effect of the economic downturn on employment services, particularly with regard to:
•job seeker numbers and characteristics
•the broad patterns of assistance provided by JSA
•the costs to the Government of the assistance provided and the costs borne by JSA in providing that assistance
•the effectiveness of this assistance in achieving placements and outcomes.

Extent of the Great Barrier Reef coastal zone for investigating coastal management and its impacts on marine life in the context of conservation planning (NERP TE 9.4, JCU)

This dataset contains the extent of the coastal zone for the Great Barrier Reef. This extent was identified as the most suitable area to be investigated on land and at sea as part of a conservation planning project looking at coastal development along the GBR coast.


Methods:

The terrestrial part of the coastal zone was initially defined in consultation with stakeholders and included the Queensland Government¿s definition as ¿either: five kilometres from the coastline; or where land first reaches the height of 10 metres Australian Height Datum (AHD), whichever is further from the coast¿ (Queensland Coastal Management Plan). However, the Queensland government definition corresponds to a narrow strip of coastline in most areas and does not encompass most of coastal land uses (and their potential future expansion) that have a significant impact on the marine environmental such as agriculture. In the context of biodiversity conservation and water quality, workshop participants were asked what the coastal zone meant to them. The answers were summarised into four main categories:
1- Intensive coastal-based agriculture,
2- Geomorphological characteristics,
3- Typical coastal vegetation, and
4- Human presence and activities.
The coastal zone was defined to include all features that would match these four categories, and that also included the Government¿s definition. The marine part of the coastal zone was also defined during this process and the offshore boundary was described as the maximum flood plume extent (secondary flood plume) as in Álvarez-Romero et al. 2013. The extent was smoothed to allow a clear area to be defined. This covers the areas that are have the greatest level of impacts from coastal development, in particular from run-off.


Format:

GBR_coastal_zone.shp (and all associated files as part of the shapefile)
This dataset contains a polygon that defines the extent of the area identified as the most appropriate coastal zone of the Great Barrier Reef to investigate conservation planning, in particular spatial planning of coastal development to ensure the health for the GBR World Heritage Area.
