Onshore Active and Passive Seismic Surveys WFS

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.

Statement

The data in this service are sourced from Geoscience Australia's onshore active seismic and passive seismic Oracle database, which is being added to as new surveys are undertaken. The service replaces an earlier Onshore Seismic Surveys web service based on ArcGIS Server and SDE database, with the addition of passive seismic survey metadata.
