National Geochemical Survey of Australia: Comparison of Geochemical and Airborne Radiometric Data

The National Geochemical Survey of Australia (NGSA) provides the first national coverage of multi-element chemistry at a continental scale. The NGSA data is an important complement to other national-scale geological and geophysical datasets, particularly the Radiometric Map of Australia. The Radiometric Map of Australia shows potassium (K) measured directly from gamma-rays emitted when 40K decays to argon (40Ar), whereas thorium (Th) and uranium (U) do not emit gamma-rays. Instead, their abundances are inferred indirectly by measuring gamma-ray emissions associated with parent radionuclides (thallium-208 for Th, and bismuth-214 for U) within their radioactive decay chains. Airborne-derived grids provide a continuous prediction of these radioelements across the Australian landscape. In contrast, the NGSA data provide a series of precise single point geochemical measurements of surface (0-10 cm) and near-surface (~60-80 cm depth) unconsolidated catchment outlet sediments.

GSWA Menzies South Potassium Grid Geodetic

The radiometric, or gamma-ray spectrometric method, measures the natural variations in the gamma-rays detected near the Earth's surface as the result of the natural radioactive decay of potassium (K), uranium (U) and thorium (Th). The data collected are processed via standard methods to ensure the response recorded is that due only to the rocks in the ground. The results produce datasets that can be interpreted to reveal the geological structure of the sub-surface. The processed data is checked for quality by GA geophysicists to ensure that the final data released by GA are fit-for-purpose.
This radiometric potassium grid has a cell size of 0.00021 degrees (approximately 22m) and shows potassium element concentration of the Menzies South, WA, 2013 in units of percent (or %). The data used to produce this grid was acquired in 2013 by the WA Government, and consisted of 93645 line-kilometres of data at 100m line spacing and 50m terrain clearance.

Catalogue of Datasets and Data Records: Assessment of Climate Change Impacts on Groundwater in Timor-Leste

Collation and interpretation of existing national datasets relevant to the project is part of the assessment and understanding of Timor-Leste groundwater systems. When collecting data in Timor-Leste several government departments were visited and, from each, different datasets were collected. The Agriculture and Land Geographic Information System (ALGIS) section of the National Directorate of Policy and Planning, Ministry of Agriculture and Fisheries had the largest amount of data pertinent to this project. All of the datasets collected are relevant and important; however, much of the data came from different projects and there was no data catalogue present at any department, nor was any metadata attached to the datasets to identify what they were or 'readme' files in any of the project folders. This information needed to be created by Geoscience Australia before the data could be used in an effective manner.

Synthetic Aperture Radar Data

GA is the custodian of a 20 year archive of Synthetic Aperture Radar (SAR) data covering the Australian continent that can be used to observe cm-scale ground motion and surface texture associated rock type, changes in vegetation or floods. SAR is an airborne or spaceborne side-looking radar system that actively transmits microwave radiation towards earth. The resulting imagery is very different from optical data and can be collected regardless of weather conditions and at any time of day. Images pairs can be used for interferometry to accurately determine surface elevation and to construct digital elevation models or to measure cm-scale changes in surface position. Alternatively, the amplitude and polarity of single images can be used to characterise surface textures for the purpose of identifying types and or changes in surface materials. The SAR sensors for this collection are ESA's two C-band European Remote Sensing (ERS) satellites, ERS-1 (30/07/1991-10/03/2000) and ERS-2 (13/07/1995-05/09/2011). GA plans to add data from several of the upcoming missions (at least five are planned during the next five years) providing continuing coverage of Australia. Ongoing processing of the SAR data will produce measurements of ground motion that will be incorporated into the data collection.

Wiluna International Map of the World (IMW) 1:1 000 000 topographic map

The International Map of the World (IMW) series is no longer maintained, and printed copies of this map are no longer available. The Australian portion of the series consists of 49 maps. They were produced to an international specification using the R502 series at 1:250,000 scale as source material. Production commenced in 1926 and was completed in 1978. The maps were revised from time to time and the last reprint was undertaken in 2003. Each standard map sheet covers 4 degrees of latitude by 6 degrees of longitude and was produced using a Lambert Conformal Conic projection with 2 standard parallels. The series has recently been superseded by the 1:1 000 000 topographic map general reference.

This GSV Tallangatta VIMP Vic pot tho ura totg 4band radiometric grid geodetic has a cell size of 0.0005 degrees (approximately 50m). The data used to produce this grid was acquired in 1994 by the VIC Government, and consisted of 52397 line-kilometres of data at 200m line spacing and 80m terrain clearance. The grid was produced by applying the colours red to the Potassium ground concentration, green to the Thorium concentration and blue to the Uranium concentration. The colours were clipped to a 99% linear scale. These colours were transparent over a shaded Total Count. This clipping will necessarily introduce some artefacts into the ratio grids in areas of very low radioelement concentrations. The 3-band image was superposed on the sun shaded TC grid of the same survey to produce the final image.

Forrest, WA, 2010 (Eucla Basin 5N) (P1223), magnetic line data, AWAGS levelled

Total magnetic intensity (TMI) data measures variations in the intensity of the Earth's magnetic field caused by the contrasting content of rock-forming minerals in the Earth crust. Magnetic anomalies can be either positive (field stronger than normal) or negative (field weaker) depending on the susceptibility of the rock. The data are processed via standard methods to ensure the response recorded is that due only to the rocks in the ground. The results produce datasets that can be interpreted to reveal the geological structure of the sub-surface. The processed data is checked for quality by GA geophysicists to ensure that the final data released by GA are fit-for-purpose.
