Gippsland Basin (Onshore), Vic,1998 (GSV3167) (P669), radiometric line data, AWAGS levelled

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 Gippsland Basin (Onshore), Vic,1998 (GSV3167) (P669), radiometric line data, AWAGS levelled were acquired in 1998 by the VIC Government, and consisted of 11071 line-kilometres of data at 200m line spacing and 80m 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.

Katherine 1:250 000, R502 historical topographic map

The R502 series of maps has been replaced by the National Topographic Map Series (NTMS). The R502 series consists of 542 map sheets and covers Australia at a scale of 1:250,000. It was compiled from aerial photography, but only about one quarter of the series was contoured. The standard sheet size is 1 degree of latitude by 1.5 degrees of longitude. Transverse Mercator map projection and Clark 1858 datum were used. Coverage of the country was completed in 1968.

Tsunami Animation - Subduction Inundation Crest

Depending on whether the first part of a tsunami to reach the shore is a crest or a trough, it may appear as a rapidly rising or falling tide, and in some cases the tsunami may appear as a series of breaking waves. People near the beach may also hear a roaring sound, like an approaching train.
In this example, the first crest of our tsunami arrives without warning and inundates the beach and low lying land causing extensive damage.
After the first wave, the water will draw back and then the second and third waves will repeat the process at 15 to 20 minute intervals. The first wave may not be the biggest. Reefs and offshore islands may help to protect the coast from the devastating effect of a tsunami.

Munduberra, 1994-1995, Qld,AIRDATA (P790), 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.

AusBathyTopo (Northern Australia) 30m 2018 - A regional-scale depth model (20180020C)

This dataset contains bathymetry (depth) products from the compilation of all available source bathymetry data within Northern Australia into a 30 m-resolution Digital Elevation Model (DEM).
The Northern Australia region includes a broad continental shelf over 400 km wide extending out from Western Australia and the Northern Territory, and stretching over a distance of ~1500 km.
This region encompasses numerous shallow coral reefs including the offshore Sahul Banks, sand cays, drowned ancient river valleys, broad inner-shelf banks and a rugged coastline.
Bathymetry mapping of the seafloor is vital for the protection of Northern Australia, allowing for the safe navigation of shipping and improved environmental management.
Shallow- and deep-water multibeam surveys have revealed the highly complex seafloor of the continental shelf and adjacent slope canyons draining into the Indian Ocean and Timor Sea.
Airborne LiDAR bathymetry acquired by the Australian Hydrographic Office cover most of the Sahul Banks reefs, with some coverage gaps supplemented by satellite derived bathymetry.
The Geoscience Australia-developed Intertidal Elevation Model DEM improves the source data gap along Northern Australia’s vast intertidal zone.
All source bathymetry data were extensively edited as point clouds to remove noise, given a consistent WGS84 horizontal datum, and where possible, an approximate MSL vertical datum.

Development and Verification of the Java Exposure Model for use in PSRA

The island of Java in Indonesia is the most populated island in the world, with over 150 million 
residents. Java is located in a complex tectonic setting and frequently experiences damaging earthquakes. In Java, many buildings are non-engineered and built with limited or no seismic design provisions. This has led to poor quality construction and materials being used, particularly in residential houses, with the housing sector often sustaining the highest economic losses in Indonesia. Despite this high hazard, high exposure, and high vulnerability there is limited seismic risk information available for Java. This is in part due to poor data availability to develop exposure and vulnerability models to verify them. This study has focussed on developing a village scale exposure model for Java from multiple sources and understanding the uncertainty in this process. This new exposure model harmonises multiple eras of census data, government reports, the 
Global Human Settlement building height model, OpenStreetMap, post-disaster surveys and other published literature to develop an exposure model that includes residential, commercial, and industrial buildings, and schools. The model shows spatial variation in the seismic resilience of buildings based on the relative wealth, region (rural, urban or city) and population density. Model performance was then assessed through scenario damage analysis of several recent earthquakes in Java. 
A reliable exposure model is a critical input to a Probabilistic Seismic Risk Assessment (PSRA) that would help Indonesia mitigate the threat earthquakes pose to communities and infrastructure. However, the scenario damage analyses highlighted two key issues that must be addressed before conducting a PSRA. Firstly, it identified that the ground motion models used in recent Indonesia PSHAs do not accurately represent the ground motion, particularly in areas with active volcanism. Secondly it identified that the performance of the exposure model varies across Java, but the reason for this variation is difficult to elucidate without a better understanding of the uncertainty in the exposure model. To assess this uncertainty, a suite of alternate mapping schema was developed for the exposure model. The result of this study is a detailed fine scale exposure model with uncertainty that can be used as an input for PSRA to support decision making in Java, Indonesia.
