NTData (digital geology of the Northern Territory), Helen Springs

These data are a digital representation of information depicted on printed maps from the Australia 1:250 000 Geological Series produced by AGSO and the Northern Territory Geological Survey (NTGS) between 1963 and 1998.  The data are in a tiled format 
and are not seamless, although basic edgematching has been done where possible.  Tiles are arranged according to the standard Australian 1:250 000 sheet breakup.  The complete dataset is comprised of the 90 tiles covering the Northern Territory.

GMRT-AusSeabed PL-019 User Needs Survey Summary: Setting User Requirements

The GMRT-AusSeabed project aims to address the cost associated with processing, merging and reformatting of bathymetric data in marine modelling and management. This will be achieved by adopting and expanding the Global Multi-Resolution Topography Synthesis (GMRT) tool and becoming a local platform node focused on Australia’s region of marine responsibility. The GMRT is operated by Lamont Doherty Earth Observatory and funded by the US National Science Foundation. The implementation of GMRT for Australia is supported by funding from the Australian Research Data Commons (ARDC). 
One of the main deliverables for the project is a user needs analysis, which will inform the design of the platform.  This report presents a summary of the outcomes of the engagement with the ocean and coastal modelling community to ensure the solutions are fit-for-purpose. The initial project plan included a proposal for in-person workshop with the modelling community to establish user requirements, however COVID-19 restrictions were in place during the project and this was not possible. Instead, requirements were gathered from the community via an online survey. An overview of the survey questions and responses is presented in Section 2, while Section 3 provides some further analysis of the results and recommendations for the design of the new platform.

OCCAM VLBI Processing Software FTP site
Geodetic Very Long Baseline Interferometry (VLBI) observations provided the first direct confirmation of tectonic plate motion at the end of the 1980s. Now VLBI observations measure the motions of stations with accuracy better than 1mm/year together with other space geodetic techniques such as Global Positioning System (GPS) and Satellite Laser Ranging (SLR) Analysis.

SA Gravity Survey 1997A7 (P199757), gravity point data

Gravity data measures small changes in gravity due to changes in the density of rocks beneath the Earth's surface. 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 SA Gravity Survey 1997A7 (P199757) contains a total of 137 point data values acquired at a spacing between 100 and 400 metres. The data is located in SA and were acquired in 1997, under project No. 199757 for None.

Australian Maritime Zones in the Torres Strait

This map depicts the various maritime boundaries and zones in the Torres Strait. These include Australia`s jurisdictional maritime boundaries, as well as, the seabed and fisheries jurisdiction line established under the Treaty between Australia and the Independent State of Papua New Guinea. This Treaty entered into force on 15 February 1985. 
The map also depicts a protected zone established under the Treaty to acknowledge and protect the traditional way of life and livelihood of the traditional inhabitants including their traditional fishing and free movement, as well as, to protect and preserve the marine environment and indigenous fauna and flora. 
The depiction of the Territorial Sea Baseline (TSB) and the outer limits of Australia`s maritime zones shown on the map are sourced from the Australian Marine Spatial Information System (AMSIS) maintained by Geoscience Australia. The TSB and zones are established under the Seas and Submerged Lands Act 1973.

Throssell, WA, airborne geophysical survey, 1998, operations report

The Australian Geological Survey Organisation (AGSO) flew an airborne geophysical survey
of 39,698 line kilometres over all but the southwestern 1:100 000 map Sheet area of the
Throssell 1:250 000 map Sheet area in the Eastern Goldfields of Western Australia. The
survey was flown in two separate blocks known as the eastern block and western block. The
eastern block covers the eastern two thirds of the Throssell 1:250 000 Sheet (Blaxland,
Buldya, Yamarna and Lake Throssell 1:100 000 Sheets) area and the western block covers the
northern half of the western third of the sheet (Strawbridge 1:100 000 Sheet).
The survey area covers part of the northeast margin of the Yilgarn Craton. Intermittent
Archaean outcrop is restricted to the western half of the survey area. The cover includes
Proterozoic Earaheedy Basin sediments in the north and Palaeozoic Officer Basin sediments
in the east.
The eastern block was flown along north-south flight lines and the western block was flown
along east-west flight lines. Both blocks were flown at 400 m line spacing at a nominal
altitude of 60 m above ground level. AGSO flew the survey in May and June 1998.
The total magnetic intensity, gamma-ray spectrometric and digital elevation model data which
were collected during the survey, have been processed and merged with a separately acquired
neighbouring dataset covering the south-western 1:100 000 map Sheet area
(Jutson 1:100 000 Sheet). The entire dataset is available for purchase, in both digital (point
located data and gridded) and map form, from AGSO. Additionally an interpretation of the
data is available from AGSO.

Tanami NS 1D - TMI grid (AWAGS)

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.
This Tanami NS 1D - TMI grid (AWAGS) has a cell size of 0.00018 degrees (approximately 20m). The units are in nanoTesla (or nT). The data used to produce this grid was acquired in 2018 by the NT Government, and consisted of 2188 line-kilometres of data at 100m line spacing and 60m terrain clearance. To constrain long wavelengths in the grid, an independent data set, the Australia-wide Airborne Geophysical Survey (AWAGS) airborne magnetic data, was used to control the base levels of the survey grid.
