Innamincka Strzelecki ppm uranium 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 uranium grid has a cell size of 0.00083 degrees (approximately 87m) and shows uranium element concentration of the Innamincka, Strzelecki, SA, 1997 in units of parts per million (or ppm). The data used to produce this grid was acquired in 1997 by the SA Government, and consisted of 91998 line-kilometres of data at 400m line spacing and 80m terrain clearance.

Earthquake Risk and Mitigation Assessment in Tasmania State-wide Assessment of Risk, Resilience and Mitigation

We performed an earthquake risk assessment of the state of Tasmania through a collaboration between the Tasmania Department of State Growth and Geoscience Australia with geotechnical and geological support from Mineral Resources Tasmania (MRT). We developed local surface earthquake hazard maps for Tasmania, focusing on the twenty largest communities, based on the 2018 National Seismic Hazard Assessment and seismic site conditions map for Australia augmented by geotechnical information provided by MRT. For the building exposure database, the National Exposure Information System was augmented with an engineering survey of Hobart central business district (CBD) undertaken by GA. We used GA’s current vulnerability functions including a range of models for high-risk unreinforced masonry buildings (URM). With a focus on the Hobart CBD, retrofit measures were applied to the URM building types in order to quantify the effectiveness of mitigation. This study provided a synoptic state-wide view that enabled the identification of communities of high risk and low resilience by combining the damage related risk with the Australian Disaster Resilience Index. In addition, three earthquake scenario events centred on Hobart were modelled along with the impact reduction achieved through a virtual retrofit of old URM buildings in the Hobart CBD.&nbsp;

This paper was presented to the 2022 Australian Earthquake Engineering Society (AEES) Conference 24-25 November (https://aees.org.au/aees-conference-2022/)

GSV Colac VIMP Vic pot tho ura totg 4band radiometric grid geodetic

This GSV Colac VIMP Vic pot tho ura totg 4band radiometric grid geodetic is an airborne-derived radiometric Potassium, Thorium and Uranium data over a sun shaded total count radiometric data for the Colac, Vic, 1999 VIMP Survey (GSV3148). 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 uranium (K), uranium (U) and uranium (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 GSV Colac VIMP Vic pot tho ura totg 4band radiometric grid geodetic has a cell size of 0.0005 degrees (approximately 49m). The data used to produce this grid was acquired in 1999 by the VIC Government, and consisted of 158294 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.

Choice of solar spectral irradiance model for current and future remote sensing satellite missions

The accuracy of surface reflectance estimation for satellite sensors using radiance-based calibrations can depend significantly on the choice of solar spectral irradiance (or solar spectrum) model used for atmospheric correction. Selecting an accurate solar spectrum model is also important for radiance-based sensor calibration and estimation of atmospheric parameters from irradiance observations. Previous research showed that Landsat 8 could be used to evaluate the quality of solar spectrum models. This paper applies the analysis using five previously evaluated and three more recent solar spectrum models using both Landsat 8 (OLI) and Landsat 9 (OLI2). The study was further extended down to 10 nm resolution and a wavelength range from Ultraviolet A (UVA) to shortwave infrared (SWIR) (370–2480 nm) using inversion of field irradiance measurements. The results using OLI and OLI2 as well as the inversion of irradiance measurements were that the more recent Chance and Kurucz (SA2010), Meftah (SOLAR-ISS) and Coddington (TSIS-1) models performed better than all of the previous models. The results were illustrated by simulating dark and bright surface reflectance signatures obtained by atmospheric correction with the different solar spectrum models. The results showed that if the SA2010 model is assumed to be the “true” solar irradiance, using the TSIS-1 or the SOLAR-ISS model will not significantly change the estimated ground reflectance. The other models differ (some to a large extent) in varying wavelength areas.
