North-east Australian Fractured Rock Province hydrogeological inventory

This North-east Australian Fractured Rock Province dataset contains descriptive attribute information for the areas bounded by the relevant spatial groundwater feature in the associated Hydrogeology Index map. Descriptive topics are grouped into the following themes: Location and administration; Demographics; Physical geography; Surface water; Geology; Hydrogeology; Groundwater; Groundwater management and use; Environment; Land use and industry types; and Scientific stimulus.
In fractured rock aquifers, groundwater is stored in the fractures, joints, bedding planes and cavities of the rock mass. About 40 per cent of groundwater in Australia is stored in fractured rock aquifers, and much of this may be available for irrigation, town water supplies, stock watering and domestic use.
Approximately 33% of all bores in Australia are in fractured systems, representing about 10 per cent of total extraction. Groundwater yield is extremely variable, and dependent on the distribution of major fractures. However, rates of groundwater movement in fractured rock systems are difficult to quantify.
Characterising groundwater flow in fractured rock aquifers is difficult with existing techniques, and groundwater flow direction can be related more to the orientation of fractures than to the hydraulic head distribution. Recharge in fractured rock aquifers is usually local and intermediate.
The Queensland fractured rock is taken to be that part of the northern elements of the Eastern Fracture Rock provinces that extends from the southern part of the Laura Basin, south to the state boundary with New South Wales, and inland as far as the Bundock and Galilee Basins. It comprises the Mossman, Thomson and New England Orogens, and related Provinces. These include:
i) The Mossman Orogen, including the Hodgkinson Province, and the Broken River Province; 
ii) The Thomson Orogen, comprising Neoprotozoic – Early Paleozoic Provinces, including the Anakie Province, Barnard Province, Charters Tower Province, Greenvale Province, and Iron Range Province; and
iii) The New England Orogen, including the Gympie Province, Connors-Auburn Province, Yarrol Province, Wandilla Province, Woolomin Province, Calliope Province, Marlborough Province, and Silverwood Province

Mt Isa E Gravity Complete Bouguer Anomaly geodetic

Gravity data measures 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. The processed data is checked for quality by GA geophysicists to ensure that the final data released by GA are fit-for-purpose.
This Mt Isa E Gravity Complete Bouguer Anomaly geodetic is a complete Bouguer anomaly grid for the Mt Isa Area E Gravity Survey (P200644). This gravity survey was acquired under the project No. 200644 for the geological survey of QLD. The grid has a cell size of 0.0075 degrees (approximately 802m). The data are given in units of um/s^2, also known as 'gravity units', or gu. A total of 6123 gravity stations were acquired to produce this grid.

AUSGeoid98 v.1.0 data files:  (sk49-09)

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.

Intertidal Extents Model Confidence Layer

The Intertidal Extents Model (ITEM v1.0) product is a national scale gridded dataset characterising the spatial extents of the exposed intertidal zone, at intervals of the observed tidal range. The current version utilises all Landsat observations (5, 7, and 8) for Australian coastal regions (excluding off-shore Territories) between 1987 and 2015 (inclusive).
The Intertidal Extents Model (ITEM v1.0) consists of three datasets derived from the Landsat NBAR data managed in the Australian Geoscience Data Cube (AGDC) for the period 1987 to 2015.
The Confidence Layer (ITEM_CL_mosaic_1987_2015.tif) reflects the confidence level of the Relative Extents Model, based on the distribution of classification metrics within each of the 10% intervals of the tidal range. The layer should be used to filter region/pixels in the model where the derived spatial extents may be adversely affected by data and modelling errors.
Note: The confidence layer should be utilised on a cell-by-cell basis.  Standard deviation values within the confidence layer for a particular cell are not comparable to other cells within the model.
Attributes:
Single Band Integer Raster:
0 - Model is invalid. Indicates pixels where data quality and/or number of observations have resulted in no available observations in one or more of the percentile interval subsets.
-32767 - No Data
All other values - The pixel-based average of the NDWI standard deviations calculated independently for each 10% percentile interval of the observed tidal range (x 1000).

L160 Narrabri (Gunnedah Basin) three component high resolution seismic survey, NSW, 2003

An experimental high-resolution seismic survey was undertaken in the Pilliga State Forest near Narrabri, NSW in April 2003. The Australian National Seismic Imaging Resource (ANSIR) carried out the field work on behalf of a Geoscience Australia research project. A NSW State Forests Special Purposes Permit was obtained for the survey.
This survey was designed to collect a seismic dataset for shallow high-resolution seismic imaging in an area of known high data quality. Both P- and S-wave seismic sources were employed with data recorded using 14 Hz 3 component geophones. The objective of this project was to provide researchers with an over-sampled multi-component, multi-source shallow high-resolution seismic data set for the development of acquisition and processing methodologies.

AGSO wide-angle seismic profiling database

Over many years the Australian Geological Survey Organisation (AGSO), and its predecessor the Bureau of Mineral Resources, Geology and Geophysics (BMR), has acquired wide-angle seismic profiling data to determine velocity structures of geological features within various minerals and petroleum provinces. Wide-angle seismic profiling is a technique used where the shot-to-receiver offset is significantly greater than the target depth, e.g. for target horizons at 10 km the shot-to-
receiver offset may be in the range 0-100 km. Basic information on the various surveys is commonly contained in operational reports written on each survey and published as GA (or BMR) Records.
With the rapid increases in the amount of data acquired in recent years as data acquisition methods have improved and the resolution of geological structure has become more demanding, it hasbecome impractical to publish all the data from surveys in hard-copy form. Basic information such as recording station locations, shot data, shot times, instruments used, etc., is now stored in computer data files on various media. Hence there is a need to develop a database system to keep track of all the basic survey information.
This Record descibes an AGSO wide-angle seismic profiling database that has been established using Microsoft AccessÂ® software which should enable users to locate and access basic survey information and data. It has been set up in such a way that it can be modified and improved with the addition of future data and new "fields" of information as required. The current database includes more recent surveys in the Browse Basin and Otway Basin. Survey data are accessed using a unique identifier for each survey (based on the date of firing the first shot). The scope of data being accessed will improve with the addition of older survey data. It is intended that database information and the computer data files be archived at regular intervals on a CD-ROM format
