Statement

Paper copies of current versions of 250K scale geological maps are scanned and stored as JPG image files. The outlines of the spatial extents of these maps, and metadata about the publication of the maps, are delivered by this index web service. Each of the map index polygons provides hyperlinks to the scanned map images which are available for download from Geoscience Australia. The web service was revised in 2016 as part of an infrastructure platform upgrade.
