Helicopter Gravity Canberra (P197124), 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 Helicopter Gravity Canberra (P197124) contains a total of 107 point data values acquired at a spacing between 1500 and 400 metres. The data is located in ACT and were acquired in 1971, under project No. 197124 for Bureau of Mineral Resources (BMR).

Evidence on the radius of the Precambrian Earth

It is suggested that the early and middle Proterozoic crustal record is inconsistent with, and cannot be explained on, an Earth of present-day dimensions (Glikson, in prep.). Stratigraphic, isotopic and geochemical data from terrains of the above age range in Australia, South Africa, Canada and other regions are diagnostic of intrasialic crustal environments - disclosing evidence neither for simatic crust nor for volcanic products of its partial fusion. The sima-tosial transformation processes which have dominated Archaean evolution (Engel, 1968; Viljoen and Viljoen, 1969; Glikson, 1970, 1972; Anhaeusser, 1973; Arth and Hanson, 1975) ceased by ca 2.6 aeons ago, and all available data indicate that both cratonic and mobile Proterozoic domains have, in the main, been founded on sialic basement. An extended tectonic hiatus existed between 2.6 and 2.0 aeons ago, and the onset of development of Proterozoic intrasialic mobile belts is thought to have essentially postdated the latter age.

Southern Cross Ellipsoid Gnd Height Geodetic

Digital Elevation data record the terrain height variations from the processed point-located data recorded during a geophysical survey. This Southern Cross Ellipsoid Gnd Height Geodetic is elevation data for the Southern Cross Gravity Survey, 2010 (P200962). This survey was acquired under the project No. 200962 for the geological survey of WA. The grid has a cell size of 0.00485 degrees (approximately 498m).  This grid contains the ground elevation relative to the ellipsoid for the Southern Cross Gravity Survey, 2010 (P200962). It represents the vertical distance from a location on the Earth's surface to the ellipsoid. The data are given in units of meters. The processed data is checked for quality by GA geophysicists to ensure that the final data released by GA are fit-for-purpose.

Edith River area: carborne radiometric survey and prospecting by geochemical party, July, 1953

A radiometric survey was made, by carborne equipment, of the area of granitic country south-west of Edith Siding that was covered by the airborne scintillometer survey of 1952. Several small, lenticular deposits of radioactive, hematitic lode material were found in three shear zones, but the radioactive anomalies were in general due to hills of granite which have counts higher than the general background count. A similar carborne survey, and an investigation by a geochemical party, were made in an area of Brocks Creek sediments south-east of the Edith Siding, in which twelve third order anomalies had been indicated by the airborne survey. The anomalies were found to occur mainly along a slaty band, and along a prominently outcropping bed of tuffaceous sandstone. A shear or fracture zone near the southern end of the area investigated contains oxidized copper minerals, and Geiger counts a little higher than usual were obtained at one locality within it, and at another locality approximately 200 feet east of it. The largest of the hematitic lenses in the granitic country south-west of the Edith Siding will be inspected and sampled, and additional prospecting will be done along and adjacent to the copper bearing shear zone.

AUSGeoid98 v.1.0 data files:  (sj49-16)

AUSGeoid98 data files contain a 2 minute grid of AUSGeoid98 data covering the Australian region, which you can use to interpolate geoid-ellipsoid separations for the positions required.You can use your own interpolation software, or you can use Geoscience Australia's Windows Interpolation software (Winter). The data files are text files in a standard format that cover the same area as standard topographic map areas. Files covering both 1:250,000 (approximately 100 x 150 km) and 1:1,000,000 (approximately 400 x 600 km) map areas are available. There is a 4 minute overlap on all sides of each area. Data format: AUSGeoid98 data files have a header record at the start of each file, to distinguish them from the superseded AUSGeoid93 data files. AUSGeoid98 data files show the geoid-ellipsoid separation to 3 decimal places, while the superseded AUSGeoid93 data files showed only 2 decimal places. AUSGeoid98 deflections of the vertical were computed from the geoid-ellipsoid separation surface, while the AUSGeoid93 deflections of the vertical were computed from OSU91A.

Wiluna magnetic grid geodetic

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 Wiluna magnetic grid geodetic has a cell size of 0.00083 degrees (approximately 88m). The units are in nanoTesla (or nT). The data used to produce this grid was acquired in 1990 by the WA Government, and consisted of 47000 line-kilometres of data at 400m line spacing and 60m terrain clearance.

Davis Multibeam Survey 2016/17, Antarctica (GA-0357-0360/ AAP 5093/ HI590) – High Resolution Bathymetry Grid

Geoscience Australia, the Royal Australian Navy (RAN) and the Australian Antarctic Division (AAD) conducted a hydrographic surveying and seafloor characterisation survey in nearshore waters offshore from Davis Station in the Australian Antarctic Territory. 
The multibeam bathymetry data was acquired during January-February 2017 using two workboats. Geoscience Australia used the AAD workboat Howard Burton and the Royal Australian Navy used their Antarctic Survey Vessel (ASV) Wyatt Earp. The survey is a component of Australian Antarctic Program (AAP) Project 5093 Hydrographic Surveying and Seafloor Characterisation Program (Chief Investigator: Ursula Harris, AAD). 
The objective of the survey was to map the seabed environment in shallow (&lt;300 m) coastal waters adjacent to Davis station in the Vestfold Hills region, to obtain data for the compilation of nautical charts and to acquire fundamental baseline data necessary for informed environmental management, science, infrastructure and logistical operations. Data collected during the survey includes high-resolution multibeam bathymetry and backscatter data, sediment samples, seafloor imagery and sub-bottom profiles.
