Darwin Harbour Habitat Mapping Program: Slope

This resource contains a slope grid for the greater Darwin Harbour region as part of a baseline seabed mapping program of Darwin Harbour and Bynoe Harbour. This project was funded through offset funds provided by an INPEX-led Ichthys LNG Project to the Northern Territory Government’s Department of Environment and Natural Resources (NTG-DENR) with co-investment from Geoscience Australia (GA) and the Australian Institute of Marine Science (AIMS). The intent of this program is to improve knowledge of the marine environments in the Darwin and Bynoe Harbour regions by collating and collecting baseline data that enable the creation of thematic habitat maps and information to underpin marine resource management decisions. The slope grid was derived from a compilation of multiple surveys undertaken by GA, AIMS and NTG-DENR between 2011 and 2017, including GA0333 (Siwabessy et al., 2015), GA0341 (Siwabessy et al., 2015), GA0351/SOL6187 (Siwabessy et al., 2016), GA4452/SOL6432 (Siwabessy et al., 2017), GA0356 (Radke et al., 2017), and GA0358 and GA0359 (Radke et al., 2018), adding to those from previous surveys GA4425 and GA0333 collected by GA, AIMS, NTG-DENR and Darwin Port Authority. The data is calculated from the bathymetry data. It measures the degree of slope at a local seabed.

Galilee Basin region: Other resource potential data guide

Publicly available geological data in the Galilee Basin region are compiled to produce statements of existing knowledge for natural hydrogen, hydrogen storage, coal and mineral occurrences. This data guide also contains assessment of the potential for carbon dioxide (CO2) geological storage and minerals in the basin region.
The mineral occurrences are mostly found in the overlying basins, and they are often small and of little economic significance. There are some exceptions, such as the Lilyvale vanadium deposit found in the northern Galilee region, in the overlying Eromanga Basin. The Galilee Basin has limited potential for uranium and precious metal deposits due to relative lack of suitable formation conditions, but the depth of much of the basin makes exploration and mining difficult and expensive.
There are some large coal measures found in the Galilee Basin, with 17 deposits in the Galilee and overlying Eromanga basins, containing about 38 billion tonnes of black coal.
An assessment of geological storage of CO2 potential suggests the Galilee Basin Betts Creek - Rewan Play is the most prospective for storing CO2, with the highest potential around the central basin region. There are no reports of natural hydrogen in the Galilee Basin.

GSQ Southern Bowen Basin Qld magnetic rtp vd1 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 GSQ Southern Bowen Basin Qld magnetic rtp vd1 grid geodetic is the first vertical derivative of the TMI RTP grid of the Southern Bowen Basin, Qld, 2004 survey.
This grid has a cell size of 0.001 degrees (approximately 106m) , and given in units of nT per metre (nT/m).  The data used to produce the TMI grid was acquired in 2004 by the QLD Government, and consisted of 74554 line-kilometres of data at 400m line spacing and 80m 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 Southern Bowen Basin, Qld, 2004 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.

Regional hydrogeological assessment of the Kati Thanda - Lake Eyre Basin, central Australia

Groundwater systems hosted within Cenozoic rocks and sediments are vitally important for supporting communities, industries and the environment throughout central Australia's Kati Thanda – Lake Eyre Basin (KT–LEB). Through the Exploring for the Future Program, Geoscience Australia has completed the first regional hydrogeological assessment across this vast inland-draining catchment. Working across jurisdictional boundaries in SA, NSW, NT and Queensland has enabled us to generate significant new hydrogeological insights and develop enhanced knowledge of fundamental groundwater systems and processes, particularly within the KT–LEB's major depositional centres of the Callabonna and Tirari sub-basins, and the Cooper Creek Palaeovalley. New geological modelling has improved our understanding of the extent, depth and thickness of the Cenozoic sediment packages which host the basin's major hydrostratigraphic units, such as the Eyre Formation (regional aquifer) and Namba Formation (regional aquitard). Other investigation highlights include the development of the first whole-of-basin regional watertable trend and depth to groundwater maps and a major increase in the proportion of groundwater bores updated with information on hydrogeological province and/or source aquifer attribution. The key findings and outcomes of this study have illustrated the value of Geoscience Australia's approach to regional hydrogeological assessments, delivering consistent frameworks and enhancing the availability and quality of data and information to improve management and decision-making of Australia's major groundwater systems.

Cooper Creek LIDAR Digital Elevation Model grids for Cooper Creek Floodplain at 10 m and 25 m resolution

The Geological and Bioregional Assessment Program collected an extensive LiDAR elevation dataset focused on Cooper Creek Floodplain in Queensland and South Australia. The LiDAR data was collected by Fugro Australia Ltd in two aerial surveys in 2019 covering a total survey area of 31,780 km2 across the Cooper Creek Floodplain, and the Thomson and Barcoo river systems (GBA 2021). The data was acquired at an average density of 1 point per square metre, processed and compiled as LiDAR Classified Data in LAS 1 km tiles and 1 m grid DEM in ESRI ascii 1 km tiles. As part of the study of the Cenozoic geology, hydrogeology and groundwater systems of Kati Thanda - Lake Eyre Basin for the National Groundwater Systems project (Exploring for the Future program) (see Evans et al. 2024) these 1 km tiles were mosaiced into a seamless grid and resampled to 10 m cell resolution raster images for ease of visualisation and usability across GIS applications (refer to lineage field of this metadata record for the complete reference details of publications cited in this abstract).
