This Record presents data collected between March and September 2018 as part of the ongoing Northern Territory Geological Survey–Geoscience Australia (NTGS–GA) SHRIMP geochronology project under the National Collaborative Framework (NCF) agreement and Geoscience Australia's Exploring for the Future Programme. Five new U–Pb SHRIMP zircon geochronological results derived from five samples of meta-igneous and metasedimentary rocks from MOUNT RENNIE (southwestern Aileron Province and northwestern Warumpi Province) in the Northern Territory are presented herein. All five samples are located at or close to the recently discovered greenfield Grapple and Bumblebee prospects that contain precious and base metal sulfide mineralisation. This Record represents the first attempt to provide temporal constraints on the country rocks that host or occur close to this mineralisation. <b>Bibliographic Reference:</b> Kositcin N, McGloin MV, Reno BL and Beyer EE, 2019.

Geoscience Australia, ACRES distribute Landsat Multi Spectral Scanner (MSS), Thermatic Mapper (TM) and Enhanced Thermatic Mapper Plus (ETM+) data for a series of epochs or time frames covering Australia. The first epoch is 1972. These data have been produced and provided by the Australian Greenhouse Office (AGO). AGO use the data in their National Carbon Accounting System for monitoring land clearing and revegetation. This data is only available through ACRES and ACRES Landsat Distributors, and not through the AGO. More information is available at <a href="http://www.ga.gov.au/acres/prod_ser/agosuite.jsp">http://www.ga.gov.au/acres/prod_ser/agosuite.jsp</a> This data is available in 1:1M tiles or as a full continental Mosaic. Tiles areas are available at: <a href="http://www.ga.gov.au/acres/prod_ser/agotilemap.jsp">http://www.ga.gov.au/acres/prod_ser/agotilemap.jsp</a>

<b>This record was retired 29/03/2022 with approval from S.Oliver as it has been superseded by eCat 132317 GA Landsat 8 OLI/TIRS Analysis Ready Data Collection 3</b> The PQ25 product facilitates interpretation and processing of Surface Reflectance (SR-N/NT), Fractional Cover 25 (FC25) and all derivative products. PQ25 is an assessment of each image pixel to determine if it is an unobscured, unsaturated observation of the Earth's surface and also whether the pixel is represented in each spectral band. The PQ product allows users to produce masks which can be used to exclude pixels which don't meet their quality criteria from analysis . The capacity to automatically exclude such pixels is essential for emerging multi-temporal analysis techniques that make use of every quality assured pixel within a time series of observations. Users can choose to process only land pixels, or only sea pixels depending on their analytical requirements, leading to enhanced computationally efficient.

<b>This record was retired 29/03/2022 with approval from S.Oliver as it has been superseded by eCat 130853 GA Landsat 5 TM Analysis Ready Data Collection 3</b> Surface Reflectance (SR) is a suite of Earth Observation (EO) products from GA. The SR product suite provides standardised optical surface reflectance datasets using robust physical models to correct for variations in image radiance values due to atmospheric properties, and sun and sensor geometry. The resulting stack of surface reflectance grids are consistent over space and time which is instrumental in identifying and quantifying environmental change. SR is based on radiance data from the Landsat TM/ETM+ and OLI sensors.

<b>This record was retired 29/03/2022 with approval from S.Oliver as it has been superseded by eCat 146091 Geoscience Australia Landsat Water Observation Statistics Collection 3</b> WOfS-STATS (WO_STATS_2.1.5) is a set of statistical summaries of the water observations contained in WOfS (WO_2.1.5). The layers available are: the count of clear observations;the count of wet observations;the percentage of wet observations over time. This product is Water Observations from Space - Statistics (WO-STATS), a set of statistical summaries of the WOfS product that combines the many years of WOfS observations into summary products that help the understanding of surface water across Australia. WO-STATS consists of the following datasets: Clear Count: how many times an area could be clearly seen (ie. not affected by clouds, shadows or other satellite observation problems), Wet Count: how many times water was detected inobservations that were clear, Water Summary: what percentage of clear observations were detected as wet (ie. the ration of wet to clear as a percentage) As no confidence filtering is applied to this product, it is affected by noise where misclassifications have occurred in the WOfS water classifications, and hence can be difficult to interpret on its own. The confidence layer and filtered summary are contained in the WO-Fil-STATS product, which provide a noise-reduced view of the water summary. WO-STATS is available in multiple forms, depending on the length of time over which the statistics are calculated. At present the following are available: WO-STATS: statistics calculated from the full depth of time series (1986 to present) WO-STATS-ANNUAL: statistics calculated from each calendar year (1986 to present) WO-STATS-NOV-MAR: statistics calculated yearly from November to March (1986 to present) WO-STATS-APR-OCT: statistics calculated yearly from April to October (1986 to present)

<b>This record was retired 15/09/2022 with approval from S.Oliver as it has been superseded by eCat 146091 DEA Water Observations Statistics (Landsat)</b> In previous versions of WOfS, the basic water classifications, statistical summaries and confidence products were contained within one product with several datasets. As of version 2.1.5, WOfS is split into three products: Water Observation Feature Layers (WO_25_2.1.5), Summary Statistics (WO-STATS_25_2.1.5), and Filtered Summary Statistics (WO-FILT-STATS_25_2.1.5). This product is Water Observations from Space - Filtered Statistics (WO-FILT-STATS), consisting of a Confidence layer that compares the WO-STATS water summary to other national water datasets, and the Filtered Water Summary which uses the Confidence to mask areas of the WO-STATS water summary where Confidence is low. The Filtered Water Summary provides the long term understanding of the recurrence of water in the landscape, with much of the noise due to misclassification filtered out. WO-FILT-STATS consists of the following datasets: Confidence: the degree of agreement between water shown in the Water Summary and other national datasets. The Confidence layer provides understanding of whether the water shown in the Water Summary agrees with where water should exist in the landscape, such as due to sloping land or whether water has been detected in a location by other means. Filtered Water Summary: A simplified version of the Water Summary, showing the frequency of water observations where the Confidence is above a cutoff level. This layer gives a noise-reduced view of surface water across Australia. Even though confidence filtering is applied to the Filtered Water Summary, some cloud and shadow, and sensor noise does persist.

Geoscience Australia's entry to the ASC2014 SPECTRUM science-art exhibition Title: Seeing Water Through Time Author: Norman Mueller Type: Science Communication image Description: The WOfS, Water Observations from Space, image is a colour-scale of how many times water was detected from the Landsat 5 and 7 satellites over central Australia from 1998 to 2012. The colours range from very low number of times (red) to very high number of times (blue), using a standard rainbow colour scheme (red-orange-yellow-green-blue). This means that red areas are hardly ever wet while blue areas are more permanent water features like lakes. The area covered includes Lake Eyre (at left) Cooper Creek (right of centre) to the Paroo River (bottom right).
