  • 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 Historical Bushfire Boundaries service represents the aggregation of jurisdictional supplied burnt areas polygons stemming from the early 1900's through to 2022 (excluding the Northern Territory). The burnt area data represents curated jurisdictional owned polygons of both bushfires and prescribed (planned) burns. To ensure the dataset adhered to the nationally approved and agreed data dictionary for fire history Geoscience Australia had to modify some of the attributes presented. The information provided within this service is reflective only of data supplied by participating authoritative agencies and may or may not represent all fire history within a state.

  • The Layered Geology of Australia web map service is a seamless national coverage of Australia’s surface and subsurface geology. Geology concealed under younger cover units are mapped by effectively removing the overlying stratigraphy (Liu et al., 2015). This dataset is a layered product and comprises five chronostratigraphic time slices: Cenozoic, Mesozoic, Paleozoic, Neoproterozoic, and Pre-Neoproterozoic. As an example, the Mesozoic time slice (or layer) shows Mesozoic age geology that would be present if all Cenozoic units were removed. The Pre-Neoproterozoic time slice shows what would be visible if all Neoproterozoic, Paleozoic, Mesozoic, and Cenozoic units were removed. The Cenozoic time slice layer for the national dataset was extracted from Raymond et al., 2012. Surface Geology of Australia, 1:1 000 000 scale, 2012 edition. Geoscience Australia, Canberra.

  • This service has been created specifically for display in the National Map and the chosen symbology may not suit other mapping applications. The Australian Topographic web map service is seamless national dataset coverage for the whole of Australia. These data are best suited to graphical applications. These data may vary greatly in quality depending on the method of capture and digitising specifications in place at the time of capture. The web map service portrays detailed graphic representation of features that appear on the Earth's surface. These features include the administration boundaries from the Geoscience Australia 250K Topographic Data, including state forest and reserves.

  • Northern Australia Infrastructure Facility (NAIF) is a development financier to infrastructure projects in the Northern Territory, Queensland, Western Australia and the Australian Indian Ocean Territories. NAIF’s mission is to be an innovative financing partner in the growth of northern Australia. A key focus of any financing is to drive public benefit, economic, population growth, and Indigenous involvement in northern Australia. This NAIF dataset contains the limit and extent of Northern Australia as defined in the Northern Australia Infrastructure Facility Act 2016 including the Northern Australia Infrastructure Facility Amendment (Extension and Other Measures) Bill 2021 and the Northern Australia Infrastructure Facility Amendment (Miscellaneous Measures) Bill 2023. This is a maintained dataset and is kept updated to reflect any amendments to the legislation. The definition in the Northern Australia Infrastructure Facility Act 2016 states that Northern Australia means the area that includes the following: </div><div>&nbsp; (a)&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;the Northern Territory; </div><div>&nbsp; (b)&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;the areas of Queensland and Western Australia that are North of the Tropic of Capricorn </div><div>&nbsp; &nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;other than the Meekatharra Statistical Area level 2; </div><div>&nbsp; (c)&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;the areas South of the Tropic of Capricorn of each Statistical Area level 2 that has an area </div><div>&nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;covered by paragraph&nbsp;(b); </div><div>&nbsp; (d)&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;the following Statistical Areas level 2:&nbsp; </div><div>&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(i)&nbsp;Gladstone; </div><div>&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp; &nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp; (ii)&nbsp;Gladstone Hinterland; </div><div>&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp; &nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(iii)&nbsp;Carnarvon;</div><div>(da)&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;the Territory of Christmas Island; </div><div>(db)&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;the Territory of Cocos (Keeling) Islands; </div><div>&nbsp; (e)&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;the Local Government Areas of Meekatharra and Wiluna (despite paragraph&nbsp;(b)); </div><div>(ea)&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;the Local Government Area of Ngaanyatjarraku; </div><div>&nbsp; (f)&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;the territorial sea adjacent to areas covered by paragraphs&nbsp;(a) to (db).</div><div><br></div><div><br></div><div><br></div>

  • This web map service provides visualisations of in-service, large-scale battery installations connected to the National Energy Market (NEM) power system in eastern and south-eastern Australia. Data compiled from the Australian Energy Market Operator (AEMO).

  • This service provides Estimates of Geological and Geophysical Surfaces (EGGS). The data comes from cover thickness models based on magnetic, airborne electromagnetic and borehole measurements of the depth of stratigraphic and chronostratigraphic surfaces and boundaries.

  • The Paleozoic alkaline and related igneous rocks of Australia web map service depicts the spatial representation of the alkaline and related rocks of Paleozoic age.

  • The Solid Geology of the North Australian Craton web service delivers a seamless chronostratigraphic solid geology dataset of the North Australian Craton that covers north of Western Australia, Northern Territory and north-west Queensland. The data maps stratigraphic units concealed under cover by effectively removing the overlying cover (Liu et al., 2015). This dataset comprises five chronostratigraphic time slices, namely: Cenozoic, Mesozoic, Paleozoic, Neoproterozoic, and Pre-Neoproterozoic.

  • This web service displays potential port locations for hydrogen export. This data is directly referenced to ‘The Australia Hydrogen Hubs Study – Technical Study’ by ARUP for the COAG Energy Council Hydrogen Working Group, 2019’.
