The integrated spatial database of geological, geophysical, geochemical and cultural data. Provides users with means of integrating and analysing data for mineral exploration and research. The area covered by GIS encompasses Broken Hill and Euriowie Blocks and comprises six 1:100 000 mapsheets; the Corona, Fowlers Gap, Broken Hill, Taltingan, Redan and Thackaringa.

This service has been created specifically for display in the National Map and the symbology displayed may not suit other mapping applications. Information included within the service includes the point locations for surface hydrology, including natural and man-made features such as water courses (including directional flow paths), lakes, dams and other water bodies and marine themes. The data is sourced from Geoscience Australia 250K Topographic data and Surface Hydrology data. The service contains layer scale dependencies.

The Nauru GIS was created for both broad scale and detailed planning of rehabilitation and secondary mining. However, it also contains other datasets (e.g buildings, roads, storage tanks etc) which although are not error free may be of interest and prove useful for other purposes. The primary components for this product were to provide: ? geocorrected images (Orthophotography), ? Digital Elevation Models, ? data integration and system development ? training. This product was designed and compiled by the Australian Geological Survey Organisation on behalf of the Nauru Rehabilitation Corporation and the Nauru Phosphate Corporation, Republic of Nauru. The project commeced in November 1999, following a scoping report written in March 1999 and was completed by June 2000. This product is referred to as the Level 1 ArcExplorer GIS as described in the Scoping and Progress Reports and the final system documentation.

The Cocos Keeling Islands Geographic Information System (CocosGIS) is a collection of spatial data, viewing & analysis tools dealing with the Cocos Keeling Islands. The data includes orthophotography, topography, culture and envrionment features of both of the islands and the areas immediately surrounding them.

This service has been created specifically for display in the National Map and the symbology displayed may not suit other mapping applications. Information included within the service includes the linear locations for surface hydrology, including natural and man-made features such as water courses (including directional flow paths), lakes, dams and other water bodies and marine themes. The data is sourced from Geoscience Australia 250K Topographic data and Surface Hydrology data. The service contains layer scale dependencies.

Discover the formation, geology, landforms, animals and vegetation of the Bungle Bungle Range. Includes stunning photographs, satellite images, maps, diagrams and guides to popular walking trails. This guide book on the Bungle Bungle Range has been produced by Geoscience Australia, in association with the Geological Survey of Western Australia and the Department of Land Conservation and Management.

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).

Generic information on DCW (Digital Chart of the World) data sets :- The primary source for DCW is the US Defense Mapping Agency (DMA) Operational Navigation Chart (ONC) series produced by the United States, Australia, Canada, and the United Kingdom. The ONCs have a scale of 1:1,000,000, where 1 inch equals approximately 16 miles.The charts were designed to meet the needs of pilots and air crews in medium and low altitude en route navigation and to support military operational planning, intelligence briefings, and other needs. Therefore, the selection of ground features is based on the requirement for rapid visual recognition of significant details seen from a low perspective angle. The DCW database was originally published in 1992. Data currency varies from place to place depending on the currency of the ONC charts. Chart currency ranges from the mid 1960s to the early 1990s. Compilation dates for every ONC chart are included in the database. For more information on the Digital Chart of the world please browse the DCW Internet Site http://www.maproom.psu.edu/dcw/ where you can download these data in VPF format. GA has converted these VPF format files to common GIS formats Arcview and Mapinfo available at www.ga.gov.au/geoscience/national on the download page. Available datasets include drainage, roads and railway networks, political areas and boundaries and population centres.
