  • Magnetic anomaly map of Australia 1:25 000 000

  • The Geology of Australia data set documents the distribution and age of major stratigraphic, intrusive and medium to high-grade metamorphic rock units of onshore Australia. It is an ongoing compilation, subject to periodic revision as additional data becomes available. The data set was compiled to use at scales between 1:2,500,000 and 1:5,000,000 inclusive.

  • The 1:2 500 000 scale bedrock geology map of Queensland and northwest New South Wales was compiled at 1:500 000 scale, primarily based on the 1:2 000 000 surface geology map of Queensland Geology (2012) by removing unconsolidated Cenozoic sediments with interpretation of aeromagnetic data and reference to Geological Survey of New South Wales' interpretation of the Thomson Orogen region (Hegarty 2010). This work also referred to the geological province work by Stewart et al (2013). Stratigraphic unit definition data is linked to the Australian Stratigraphic Names Database through the stratno, by which this bedrock geology map may also be linked to other geoscientific databases housed in Geoscience Australia.

  • Total magnetic intensity stitch of all open file airborne geophysical surveys at 250 m cellsize for Western Australia. To be released at ASEG, Perth, March 2000.

  • Geoscience Australia`s wall map of Australia is ideal for displays and feature walls in offices, classrooms and conference rooms. The four component sheets - North-East, North-West, South-East and South-West are available individually, flat or folded, with each map 103cm x 88cm. The fully assembled size is 2m x 1.7m. At this scale 1 cm on the map represents 25km on the ground. This map can be purchased from Geoscience Australia`s Sales Centre or your nearest topographic map retailer. Digital data at this scale, suitable for use in a GIS, is also available for free download. Product Specifications Coverage: Complete coverage of Australia Currency: Last revised 1998 Coordinates: Geographical Datum: AGD66 (GDA94 compliant at this scale); AHD Projection: Simple Conic on two standard parallels (18S and 36S) Medium: Paper, flat and folded copies Forward Program: Will be revised upon completion of small-scale product data revision

  • The RadWaste Reporting Tool allows Dept of Industry and GHD staff to analyse and compare Multi Criteria Analysis (MCA) ratings of a site within a nominated location and ascertain the reason for the ranking and score. This tool also outputs a snapshot of the nominated site, giving a context map and scores against requirement criteria.

  • The map represents the Tasman Fold Belt System by a set of Stratotectonic Stages, the oldest, in Tasmania, being Mesoproterozoic and the youngest, in Queensland, Jurassic-Cretaceous. Each Stage is chiefly an assemblage of lithofacies elements that taken together, represent a major episode in the tectonic evolution of the System. The boundaries of Stages and elements are commonly unconformities or seperate significantly different facies. Most Stage boundaries are time-transgressive. Stratotectonic Stages and their age ranges are shown on the map by Stage numbers.

  • The 'Major crustal boundaries of Australia' map synthesizes more than 30 years of acquisition of deep seismic reflection data across Australia, where major crustal-scale breaks have been interpreted in the seismic reflection profiles, often inferred to be relict sutures between different crustal blocks. The widespread coverage of the seismic profiles now provides the opportunity to construct a map of major crustal boundaries across Australia. Starting with the locations of the crustal breaks identified in the seismic profiles, geological (e.g. outcrop mapping, drill hole, geochronology, isotope) and geophysical (e.g. gravity, aeromagnetic, magnetotelluric) data are used to map the crustal boundaries, in map view, away from the seismic profiles. For some of these boundaries, a high level of confidence can be placed on the location, whereas the location of other boundaries can only be considered to have medium or low confidence. In other areas, especially in regions covered by thick sedimentary successions, the locations of some crustal boundaries are essentially unconstrained. The 'Major crustal boundaries of Australia' map shows the locations of inferred ancient plate boundaries, and will provide constraints on the three dimensional architecture of Australia. It allows a better understanding of how the Australian continent was constructed from the Mesoarchean through to the Phanerozoic, and how this evolution and these boundaries have controlled metallogenesis. It is best viewed as a dynamic dataset, which will have to be further refined and updated as new information such as seismic reflection data becomes available.
