  • 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.

  • The Dynamic Land Cover Dataset of Australia is the first nationally consistent and thematically comprehensive land cover reference for Australia. It is the result of a collaboration between Geoscience Australia and the Australian Bureau of Agriculture and Resource Economics and Sciences, and provides a base-line for identifying and reporting on change and trends in vegetation cover and extent. The technical report describes the background and method behind the land cover product and provides some examples of how the product may be used.

  • The Balladonia 1:100,000 regolith-landform map illustrates the distribution of regolith materials and the landforms on which they occur, illustrates using the RTMAP scheme developed by Geoscience Australia

  • The Pinjarra Lakes 1:40,000 regolith-landform map illustrates the distribution of regolith materials and the landforms on which they occur, described using the RTMAP scheme developed by Geoscience Australia

  • The Ora Banda 1:50,000 regolith-landform map illustrates the distribution of regolith materials and the landforms on which they occur, described using the Residual-Erosional-Depositional (RED) mapping scheme developed by the CSIRO Division of Exploration and Mining

  • The 1:250 000 maps show the type and distribution of 51 regolith-landform units with unique dominant regolith-landform associations, and are a subset of the 205 mapping units on the six 1:100 000 maps. These units are distinct patterns of recurring landform elements with characteristic regolith associations. Geomorphic symbols indicate the location and type of geomorphic activity. The maps present a systematic analysis and interpretation of 1:89 000 scale 1973 RC9 aerial photography, 1:100 000 scale topographic maps (AUSLIG), and field mapping data. High resolution (250m line spacing) airborne gamma-ray spectrometry and magnetics (Geoterrex) were used where applicable

  • Collated Arc/Info, ArcView and ArcGIS datasets of SA regolith-landform maps at various scales, produced by research staff and students of the Cooperative Research Centre for Landscape Evolution and Mineral Exploration and the Cooperative Research Centre for Landscape Environments and Mineral Exploration
