Geological datasets for Cenozoic geology, hydrogeology, and groundwater systems of the Kati Thanda - Lake Eyre Basin

The geological data includes the spatial extents of the Kati Thanda - Lake Eyre Basin (KT-LEB) project area, geological basin and sub-basin boundaries, and geological models of the extent and thickness of the main Cenozoic sedimentary packages in the KT-LEB in central Australia. This data package has particular focus on the geological Lake Eyre Basin (LEB) and its main sedimentary depocentres of the Callabonna and Tirari sub-basins, and the Cooper Creek Palaeovalley. The new geological datasets available in this data package were developed as part of the project on the Cenozoic geology, hydrogeology, and groundwater systems of the Kati Thanda - Lake Eyre Basin, the results of which were published in Evans et al. (2024). This activity was undertaken as part of the National Groundwater Systems project in the Geoscience Australia Exploring for the Future program.

This geological data package contains the following eight datasets:
1. Spatial extents of the boundary of the KT–LEB project area.
2. Major sites of Cenozoic sediment deposition within the KT-LEB.
3. Total thickness of Cenozoic sediments in KT-LEB, with derived contours, hillshaded image and Cenozoic cover extent. 
4. Saturated thickness model of Cenozoic sediments in the KT-LEB with derived contours, hillshaded image and Cenozoic cover extent.
5. Model of the base of Cenozoic surface of the KT-LEB project area, with derived contours, hill-shaded image and Cenozoic cover extent.
6. Model of thickness of Quaternary sediments of the KT-LEB with derived contours, hillshaded image and the Quaternary sediments extent outline.
7. Model of thickness of Namba Formation in KT-LEB, with derived contours, hillshaded image and the Namba Formation extent outline.
8. Model of thickness of Eyre Formation in KT-LEB with derived contours, hillshaded image and the Eyre Formation extent outline.

AUSGeoid98 v.1.0 data files:  (sl49)

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.

Cornish - Helena, WA, 2009 (East Canning 2) (P1207), 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 Cornish - Helena, WA, 2009 (East Canning 2) survey were acquired in 2009 by the WA Government, and consisted of 124002 line-kilometres of data at 400m line spacing and 60m 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.

Onshore Basin Inventory: the McArthur, South Nicholson, Georgina, Wiso, Amadeus, Warburton, Cooper and Galilee basins, central Australia

Following the publication of Geoscience Australia record 2014/09: Petroleum geology inventory of Australia's offshore frontier basins by Totterdell et. al, (2014), the onshore petroleum section embarked upon a similar project for onshore Australian basins. The purpose of this project is to provide a thorough basis for whole of basin information to advise the Australia Government and other stakeholders, such as the petroleum industry, regarding the exploration status and prospectivity of onshore Australian basins. Eight onshore Australian basins have been selected for this volume and these include: the McArthur, South Nicholson, Georgina, Amadeus, Warburton, Wiso, Galilee and Cooper basins.
This record provides a comprehensive whole of basin inventory of the geology, petroleum systems, exploration status and data coverage for these eight onshore Australian basins. It draws on precompetitive work programs by Geoscience Australia as well as publicly available exploration results and geoscience literature. Furthermore, the record provides an assessment of issues and unanswered questions and recommends future work directions to meet these unknowns.

Mitigating Earthquake Risk in Australia

Earthquake risk is not limited to tectonic plate boundary countries.  While less frequent, significant earthquakes can occur in intraplate countries like Australia which, at longer average return intervals, can be very severe.  For Australia this is particularly the case as earthquake hazard has not been recognised in the design of buildings and community infrastructure for most of the country’s settled history.  Significant risks exist where assets are by their nature inherently vulnerable to strong ground shaking.  This paper describes three initiatives that are assisting Australian emergency management, infrastructure managers and local government prepare for and mitigate these risks.
The first of these highlights how the characteristics of geological hazards differ from severe meteorological hazards.  The very non-linear nature of impact severity with longer average recurrence interval earthquakes is demonstrated and how this information is supporting emergency management planning including capacity sharing between ASEAN countries in the region.  Secondly, the paper describes how this research is developing knowledge of the factors behind the vulnerability of critical infrastructure facilities, and the options to mitigate these.  The software tool System for Infrastructure Facility Resilience Analysis (SIFRA) is described which enables infrastructure facility components to be examined in the context of physical vulnerability, system criticality, repair cost and restoration time.  Finally, a utilisation project of the Bushfire and Natural Hazards CRC working with the local government of York Shire in WA is described.  The project is providing information on the effectiveness of targeted retrofit of the heritage town of York to rare earthquakes and how this behaviour could be incentivised.

P201750 Coompana Gravity Survey SCBA267GU 1VD

Gravity data measure 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. 
This P201750 Coompana Gravity Survey SCBA267GU 1VD is the first vertical derivative of the spheical cap Bouguer anomaly grid for the Coompana Gravity Survey (P201750). This gravity survey was acquired under the project No. 201750 for the geological survey of SA. The grid has a cell size of 0.00387 degrees (approximately 398m). A total of 13795 gravity stations at variable spacing between 500m and 2000m were acquired to produce this grid. A Fast Fourier Transform (FFT) process was applied to the original grid to calculate the first vertical derivative grid. The processed data is checked for quality by GA geophysicists to ensure that the final data released by GA are fit-for-purpose.
