Abstract

This product brings together a selection of AGSO's continental-scale digital datasets in one digital data package (on two CD's). Datasets have been compiled using a standardised coastline, projection and central meridian enabling easy integration of any of the individual datasets. Some datasets are primary (geology, metamorphism, regions), whilst others are subsets of AGSO's major databases and datasets (magnetics, whole-rock geochemistry, mineral deposits etc). Several datasets (e.g., geology, regolith, regions and ROCKCHEM) have more than one attribute and hence from the one dataset, several different themes can be derived and displayed or plotted. Datasets have been formatted for use with Arcinfo/Arcview and Mapinfo software. This two CD package contains the digital data (Disc 1) and A3 postscript files of the more popular base maps and integrations so that you can print out your own maps (Disc 2).
