The GA Animator Software is a tool used to create high quality fly-through animations of geoscience data for internal and external stakeholders. It is build using the NASA World Wind Java SDK, as a companion tool to the publicly available 3D Data Viewer.

Upgrade for software package for geochemical modelling released in 1999. Available from OEMD on request to Evgeniy Bastrakov (a password is set for a particular user).

The Tropical Cyclone Risk Model (TCRM) is a statistical-parametric model of tropical cyclone behaviour and effects. A statistical model is used to generate synthetic tropical cyclone events. This is then combined with a parametric wind field model to produce estimates of cyclonic wind hazard.

Program PRINSAS (PRocessing and INterpretation of Small Angle Scattering data) takes raw SANS, SAXS, USANS and USAXS data, stores the data, and allows the user to further process and interpret the data. Although any small angle scattering data can be accepted, PRINSAS has been specifically designed for the processing and interpretation of SAS data for rocks and other media with a wide distribution of scatterer sizes.

<p>The Isotopic Atlas of Australia is one of the fundamental datasets in Geoscience Australia (GA)’s Exploring for the Future program. It is underpinned by a nationwide coverage of high-quality U-Th-Pb radiometric dates, mostly determined by Sensitive High Resolution Ion Micro Probe (SHRIMP). For the past decade, GA and the international SHRIMP community have relied on SQUID 2.50 software to process isotopic data acquired by SHRIMP for U-Th-Pb geochronology. However, SQUID 2.50 is obsolete because of dependency on Excel 2003, which is unsupported by Microsoft and will not operate on Windows 10. As a result, GA collaborated with the Cyber Infrastructure Research and Development Laboratory for Earth Sciences (CIRDLES.org) at the College of Charleston (USA) to redeploy SQUID 2.50 algorithms in an open-source, platform-independent and freely available Java application (Squid3). Squid3 replicates (rather than seeking to enhance) SQUID 2.50 logic and arithmetic, with substantial improvements in flexibility and interactivity. In this paper, we review documentation detailing widely trusted but little-known SQUID 2.50 algorithms and provide an overview of Squid3, focusing on the implementation and improvement of SQUID 2.50 functionality. The beta version of Squid3 is capable of end-to-end U-Th-Pb data processing, from ingestion of raw SHRIMP .xml files, through finalised summary calculations, to reporting of data arrays suitable for visualisation via packages such as Isoplot, Topsoil and IsoplotR. In production, Squid3 will enable users to sever links with Excel 2003, while ensuring the sustainability, reliability and relevance of SHRIMP data. <p><b>Citation:</b> Bodorkos, S., Bowring, J.F., and Rayner, N.M., 2020.
