    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. 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 GSWA Prince Regent Montague Doserate Grid Geodetic has a cell size of 0.00167 degrees (approximately 182m) and shows the terrestrial dose rate of the West Kimberley (Prince Regent - Montague - Charnley), WA,2011. The data used to produce this grid was acquired in 2011 by the WA Government, and consisted of 145084 line-kilometres of data at a line spacing between 200m and 800m, and 50m terrain clearance.

    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. This GSWA Charnley TMI Grid Geodetic has a cell size of 0.00042 degrees (approximately 45m). The units are in nanoTesla (or nT). The data used to produce this grid was acquired in 2011 by the WA Government, and consisted of 145084 line-kilometres of data at a line spacing between 200m and 800m, and 50m terrain clearance.

    Digital Elevation data record the terrain height variations from the processed point- or line-located data recorded during a geophysical survey. This GSWA Hickman Crater Elevation Grid Geodetic is elevation data for the South Pilbara, Hickman Crater, WA, 2011. This survey was acquired under the project No. 1233 for the geological survey of WA. The grid has a cell size of 5e-05 degrees (approximately 5m). This grid contains the ground elevation relative to the geoid for the South Pilbara, Hickman Crater, WA, 2011. It represents the vertical distance from a location on the Earth's surface to the geoid. The data are given in units of meters. The processed data is checked for quality by GA geophysicists to ensure that the final data released by GA are fit-for-purpose.
