Port Hedland Special 1:250 000 topographic map

This map is part of the series that covers the whole of Australia at a scale of 1:250 000 (1cm on a map represents 2.5 km on the ground) and comprises 513 maps. This is the largest scale at which published topographic maps cover the entire continent. Each standard map covers an area of 1.5 degrees longitude by 1 degree latitude or about 150 kilometres from east to west and 110 kilometres from north to south. There are about 50 special maps in the series and these maps cover a non-standard area. Typically, where a map produced on standard sheet lines is largely ocean it is combined with its landward neighbour. These maps contain natural and constructed features including road and rail infrastructure, vegetation, hydrography, contours (interval 50m), localities and some administrative boundaries. The topographic map and data index shows coverage of the sheets. Product Specifications Coverage: The series covers the whole of Australia with 513 maps. Currency: Ranges from 1995 to 2009. 95% of maps have a reliability date of 1994 or later. Coordinates: Geographical and either AMG or MGA (post-1993) Datum: AGD66, GDA94, AHD. Projection: Universal Traverse Mercator (UTM) Medium: Paper, flat and folded copies.

GSNSW Exploration NSW Area D Surat Basin total count grid geodetic

This GSNSW Exploration NSW Area D Surat Basin total count grid geodetic is an airborne-derived radiometric total count window countrate grid for the NSW DMR, Discovery 2000,1994-95, Area D, Surat Basin 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 total count (K), total count (U) and total count (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 D Surat Basin total count grid geodetic has a cell size of 0.00072 degrees (approximately 75m). The data are in units of counts per second (cps). The data used to produce this grid was acquired in 1995 by the NSW Government, and consisted of 117000 line-kilometres of data at 400m line spacing and 80m terrain clearance.

Geophysical investigations at the Yenberrie uranium prospect, Northern Territory

The Yenberrie uranium prospect is 3.5 miles east of the Stuart Highway, and 4.5 miles in a direction 15 degrees east of north from the bridge across the Edith River, which is 33 miles by road northward from Katherine, and 137 miles southward from Darwin. The prospect is 1.5 miles slightly north of west from the old Yenberrie wolfram and molybdenite mines. Geophysical investigations at the prospect during 1953 consisted of brief radiometric, self-potential and magnetic surveys.

Monitoring coastal change dynamics using multi-decadal moderate resolution Earth observation data

Coastal environments are intrinsically dynamic and respond to a wide array of natural and anthropogenic drivers across a broad range of time steps.  In addition, coastal environments are under increasing pressure from land use intensification and climate change.  The development of the Australian Geoscience Data Cube has delivered an unprecedented capability to support environmental change monitoring applications through rapid processing and analysis of standardised Earth Observation (EO) time-series data in a High Performance Computing environment. Standardised long-term EO data records provide the capacity to monitor coastal changes processes and understand current changes from a historical perspective. The ability to visualise environmental changes in a spatio-temporal context provides the opportunity to assess whether the change phenomena are rapid / gradual onset, and/or episodic / cyclical in nature.  Understanding the spatio-temporal nature of the changes also enables the attribution of observed changes to the potential causes. 
Hovmöller diagrams, typically used to plot meteorological data, can be applied for visualising large datasets in a meaningful way. In this study, we apply Hovmöller plots to examine coastal change processes and estuarine dynamics, based on a time-series of Landsat based surface reflectance data over a 27-year period (1987-2014), within the Australian Geoscience Data Cube.  The Hovmöller plot in Figure 1 highlights the timing of a sea wall installation and associated land reclamation processes near Fremantle, Western Australia (see PDF attachment).Three coastal change processes are illustrated in this study:

The opening, closing and migration of the mouth of the Glenelg River in Victoria; the Hovmöller plots show that the river mouth moves on an episodic basis and remains closed for periods of time. 
The installation of a sea wall and subsequent land reclamation near Fremantle in Western Australia; the results illustrate rapid anthropogenic change in the coastal zone and highlight the timing of  the sea wall installation and land reclamation processes. 
The migration of coastal dune fields north of Perth in Western Australia; the results show slow coastal change processes through the gradual northward migration of the dune field over multi-decadal time scales. The availability of standardised long-term Landsat data, in conjunction with new data becoming available from the Copernicus Sentinel-2 missions, point to the need for cross calibrated multi-sensor data, to enrich the global long-term EO record, in support of the detection and characterisation of coastal change phenomena.

Robinson Range Belele 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 Robinson Range Belele Magnetic Grid Geodetic has a cell size of 0.00083 degrees (approximately 88m). The units are in nanoTesla (or nT).

The processed data is checked for quality by GA geophysicists to ensure that the final data released by GA are fit-for-purpose. .
 This Spencer - TMI RTP 1VD grid (AWAGS) is the first vertical derivative of the TMI RTP grid of the Spencer Airborne Magnetic Radiometric and DEM survey, SA, 2018 survey.
This grid has a cell size of 0.0004 degrees (approximately 41m) , and given in units of nT per metre (nT/m).  The data used to produce the TMI grid was acquired in 2018 by the SA Government, and consisted of 49937 line-kilometres of data at 200m line spacing and 60m terrain clearance. 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. A first vertical derivative was calculated by applying a fast Fourier transform (FFT) process to the TMI RTP grid of the Spencer Airborne Magnetic Radiometric and DEM survey, SA, 2018 survey to produce this grid. This grid was calculated using an algorithm from the INTREPID Geophysics software package. This grid shows the magnetic response of subsurface features with contrasting magnetic susceptibilities. The grid can also be used to locate structural features such as dykes.
