West Pilbara, WA, 1995 (P636), elevation line data

The Digital Elevation Model represents ground surface topography between points of known elevation. The elevation data was calculated using the altimeters and Global Positioning System (GPS) sensor used for the benefit of airborne magnetic and radiometric data on the same survey. The elevation is the height relative to the Australian Height Datum GDA94 (AUSGEOID09). The processed elevation data is checked for quality by GA geophysicists to ensure that the final data released by GA are fit-for-purpose.
 These line dataset from the West Pilbara, WA, 1995 survey were acquired in 1995 by the WA Government, and consisted of 75096 line-kilometres of data at 400m line spacing and 80m terrain clearance.

Shipboard Multibeam Backscatter Grids - Caswell Sub-basin, Browse Basin Marine Survey (GA0345/GA0346/TAN1411)

Geoscience Australia (GA) conducted a marine survey (GA0345/GA0346/TAN1411) of the north-eastern Browse Basin (Caswell Sub-basin) between 9 October and 9 November 2014 to acquire seabed and shallow geological information 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 survey was conducted in three legs aboard the New Zealand research vessel RV Tangaroa, and included scientists and technical staff from GA, the NZ National Institute of Water and Atmospheric Research Ltd. (NIWA) and Fugro Survey Pty Ltd. Shipboard data (survey ID GA0345) collected included multibeam sonar bathymetry and backscatter over 12 areas (A1, A2, A3, A4, A6b, A7, A8, B1, C1, C2b, F1, M1) totalling 455 km2 in water depths ranging from 90 - 430 m, and 611 km of sub-bottom profile lines. Seabed samples were collected from 48 stations and included 99 Smith-McIntyre grabs and 41 piston cores. An Autonomous Underwater Vehicle (AUV) (survey ID GA0346) collected higher-resolution multibeam sonar bathymetry and backscatter data, totalling 7.7 km2, along with 71 line km of side scan sonar, underwater camera and sub-bottom profile data. Twenty two Remotely Operated Vehicle (ROV) missions collected 31 hours of underwater video, 657 still images, eight grabs and one core.
This catalogue entry refers to  the shipboard multibeam backscatter grids  produced for the twelve survey areas (Areas A1, A2, A3, A4, A6b, A7, A8, B1, C1, C2b, F1b and M1; 455 km2).

Jubilee, WA, 2010 (South Officer 1) (P1225), 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.
 These line dataset from the Jubilee, WA, 2010 (South Officer 1) survey were acquired in 2010 by the WA Government, and consisted of 184296 line-kilometres of data at 200m line spacing and 50m terrain clearance. To constrain long wavelengths in the data, an independent data set, the Australia-wide Airborne Geophysical Survey (AWAGS) airborne magnetic data, was used to control the base levels of the survey data. This survey data is essentially levelled to AWAGS.

Historical climate TC wind hazard assessment for Queensland

Tropical cyclone wind hazard across Queensland and the Coral Sea was evaluated using Geoscience Australia's Tropical Cyclone Risk Model (TCRM), which provides a spatial representation of the AEP wind speeds arising from tropical cyclones, as part of the Severe Wind Hazard Assessment for South East Queensland (SWHA-SEQ) project. The project is a collaboration between Queensland Fire and Emergency Services (QFES), Geoscience Australia, James Cook University (JCU) and six coastal local governments in South East Queensland.

This regional wind hazard data underpins a local-scale risk assessment for South East Queensland, which included the effects of synoptic and severe thunderstorms on wind hazard. The assessment aslo provides a baseline for projections of future TC wind hazard in the Queensland region. Details of the hazard assessment are provided in the Severe Wind Hazard Assessment for South East Queensland – SWHA-SEQ Technical Report (https://pid.geoscience.gov.au/dataset/ga/147446).&nbsp;

A preliminary seismicity model for southwest Western Australia based on neotectonic data

Seismic hazard assessment in Australia is based on the fundamental assumption that past earthquake activity is the key to what we might expect in the future. However, the instrumental record spans only 100-150 years and our historic record is not much more than 200 years. 
In recent times, high resolution digital elevation models (DEMs) have emerged as an important tool for finding and characterising earthquake related geomorphology, and particularly fault scarps. We present the results of a reconnaissance investigation of two DEM datasets covering a large portion of southwest and central Western Australia.

GSNSW Exploration NSW Area A3 Bancannia Trough thorium grid geodetic

This GSNSW Exploration NSW Area A3 Bancannia Trough thorium grid geodetic is an airborne-derived radiometric thorium window countrate grid for the NSW DMR, Discovery 2000, 1994-95, AREA A3, Bancannia Trough survey. 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 thorium (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 GSNSW Exploration NSW Area A3 Bancannia Trough thorium grid geodetic has a cell size of 0.00063 degrees (approximately 65m). The data are in units of counts per second (or cps). The data used to produce this grid was acquired in 1995 by the NSW Government, and consisted of 21000 line-kilometres of data at 400m line spacing and 80m terrain clearance.

This magnetic grid has a cell size of 0.0004 degrees (approximately 42m).The data are in nanoTesla (or nT). The data used to produce this grid was acquired in 2017 by the SA Government, and consisted of 146285 line-kilometres of data at 200m 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. This survey grid is essentially levelled to AWAGS.The data has had a variable reduction to the pole applied to centre the magnetic anomaly over the magnetised body. The VRTP processing followed a differential reduction to pole calculation up to 5th order polynomial. Magnetic inclination and declination were derived from the IGRF-11 geomagnetic reference model using a data representative date and elevation representative of the survey.
