Total magnetic intensity (TMI) data measures variations in the intensity of the Earth's magnetic field caused by the contrasting content of rock-forming minerals in the Earth crust. Magnetic anomalies can be either positive (field stronger than normal) or negative (field weaker) depending on the susceptibility of the rock. The data are processed via standard methods to ensure the response recorded is that due only to the rocks in the ground. The results produce datasets that can be interpreted to reveal the geological structure of the sub-surface. The processed data is checked for quality by GA geophysicists to ensure that the final data released by GA are fit-for-purpose. These line dataset from the Murrindal, Vic, 1996 VIMP Survey (GSV3060) survey were acquired in 1995 by the VIC Government, and consisted of 15589 line-kilometres of data at 200m line spacing and 80m terrain clearance. To constrain long wavelengths in the data, an independent data set, the Australia-wide Airborne Geophysical Survey (AWAGS) airborne magnetic data, was used to control the base levels of the survey data. This survey data is essentially levelled to AWAGS.

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.

<p>This dataset contains magnetotelluric data and a 3D inversion model from the 09GA-GA1 deep magnetotelluric transect, collected in Central Australia in 2009. The transect is 350 km long, with data acquired from 18 stations with both broadband and long period instrumentation, and 21 stations with broadband instrumentation only (a total of 39 sites). The resulting station spacing is 10km for the broadband stations, and 20km for stations with both broadband and long period instrumentation. We have reprocessed the broadband data using the Bounded Influence, Remote Reference Processing software (BIRRP), yielding an extended bandwidth of 0.003 to 1300 s and merged these data with the long period data. We have inverted the data using the ModEM 3D inversion code. <p>More details on the data processing, analysis, modelling, and interpretation can be found in the following paper: Kirkby, A. and Duan, J., 2019.

The Digital Elevation Model represents ground surface topography between points of known elevation. The elevation data was calculated using the altimeters and Global Positioning System (GPS) sensor used for the benefit of airborne magnetic and radiometric data on the same survey. The elevation is the height relative to the Australian Height Datum GDA94 (AUSGEOID09). The processed elevation data is checked for quality by GA geophysicists to ensure that the final data released by GA are fit-for-purpose. These line dataset from the Andamooka Airborne Magnetic Radiometric and DEM Survey, 2017 survey were acquired in 2017 by the SA Government, and consisted of 81874 line-kilometres of data at 200m line spacing and 60m terrain clearance.

The radiometric, or gamma-ray spectrometric method, measures the natural variations in the gamma-rays detected near the Earth's surface as the result of the natural radioactive decay of potassium (K), uranium (U) and thorium (Th). The data collected are processed via standard methods to ensure the response recorded is that due only to the rocks in the ground. The results produce datasets that can be interpreted to reveal the geological structure of the sub-surface. The processed data is checked for quality by GA geophysicists to ensure that the final data released by GA are fit-for-purpose. This radiometric uranium grid has a cell size of 0.00021 degrees (approximately 22m) and shows uranium element concentration of the Yalgoo, WA, 2014 in units of parts per million (or ppm). The data used to produce this grid was acquired in 2015 by the WA Government, and consisted of 126967 line-kilometres of data at a line spacing between 100m and 200m, and 50m terrain clearance.

The processed data is checked for quality by GA geophysicists to ensure that the final data released by GA are fit-for-purpose. The terrestrial dose rate grid is derived as a linear combination of the filtered K, U and Th grids. A low pass filter is applied to this grid to generate the filtered terrestrial dose rate grid. This GSSA Coompana Infill Doserate Grid Geodetic has a cell size of 0.00042 degrees (approximately 43m) and shows the terrestrial dose rate of the Coompana, SA, 2015. The data used to produce this grid was acquired in 2015 by the SA Government, and consisted of 286817 line-kilometres of data at a line spacing between 200m and 400m, and 80m terrain clearance.
