This web service delivers metadata for onshore active and passive seismic surveys conducted across the Australian continent by Geoscience Australia and its collaborative partners. For active seismic this metadata includes survey header data, line location and positional information, and the energy source type and parameters used to acquire the seismic line data. For passive seismic this metadata includes information about station name and location, start and end dates, operators and instruments. The metadata are maintained in Geoscience Australia's onshore active seismic and passive seismic database, which is being added to as new surveys are undertaken. Links to datasets, reports and other publications for the seismic surveys are provided in the metadata.

Between October 2008 and February 2009, Geoscience Australia undertook two major surveys off the coast of Western Australia. Areas of interest included the Mentelle and northern Perth Basins, the Southern Carnarvon Basin, the sourthern Exmouth Sub-basin (Northern arnarvon Basin) and the Wallaby Plateau. These surveys collected a range of data, including 7300 kilometers of industry-standard seismic reflection data and 43000 line kilometers of gravity and magnetic data. In addition to the new data collected, Geoscience Australia has reprocessed 11700 line kilometres of open file 2D seismic data that exists within the survey area. This data is available for purchase as part of the Southwest Margin Data Package.

<p>Geoscience Australia conducted a seismic, gravity and aeromagnetic survey in Central Australia, Northern Territory from July to November, 1985. The objectives of this multidisclipinary experiment were to investigate the structural evolution of the lithosphere in the Central Australian region with emphasis on the formation of the Ngalia and Amadeus Basins, and secondly to aid in the evaluation of the petroleum prospectivity of the basins. 486 km of six-twelve fold common mid-point (CMP) seismic reflection data were collected, from four traverses.<p><b>Raw data for this survey are available on request from clientservices@ga.gov.au - Quote eCat# 74968</b>

The Bureau of Mineral Resources conducted a seismic reflection survey of a small area near Broome, W.A., during 1954 and 1955. It was part of a general investigation of the Canning Basin and was aimed at determining the distribution of sediments south of the Fenton Fault. The seismic work indicated a sedimentary thickness of at least 6000 feet, and probably as much as 10,000 feet could be expected. It also showed that the subsurface formations are probably folded and faulted.
