  • Redfearn's Formula, Grid to Geographic Given Easting, Northing and Zone for a Universal Transverse Mercator (UTM) projection, calculate Latitude, Longitude, Grid convergence and Point Scale Factor.

  • This application provides quick-look images and download options of the MOD43 Nadir BRDF-Adjusted Reflectance (NBAR) Products generated by ACRES. These products are a composite, generated for MODIS spectral bands 1-7 at the mean solar zenith angle over a 16 day period. In addition to the NBAR composite products, the BRDF parameters for each band, the ancillary, and band quality information are also provided. Each NBAR composite product is in GeoTIFF format at 500 metres resolution. All of the files are compressed using gzip/tar as "*.tar.gz". For Windows gzip/tar support please try WinZip.

  • ALOS Group Purchase is a new facility provided by ACRES for various approved customers/agencies to access the same ALOS data over a common area using ACRES online ordering.

  • In 2014, the first version of the DOI minting software was produced,allowing machine to machine minting of DOIs. Written in Java, it accessed the GeoCat database for metadata, sent that to DataCite, and reinserted the returned DOI back into the database.

  • This system provides magnetic, radiometric, gravity and digital elevation data from Australian National, State and Territory Government geophysical data archives.

  • A stand-alone component of HCh for Windows computer package: thermodynamic database management system + the default database.

  • The Geoscience Australia World Wind Suite is a suite of tools built around the NASA World Wind Java SDK including the World Wind Data Viewer and Animator tools. The tool suite has been released as open source under the Apache 2.0 license and is available through Github (http://www.ga.gov.au/ga-m3dv/ga-worldwind-suite). Individual products in the suite are catalogued individually under IDs 69165 and 73044.

  • Background Explorer is a Geoscience Australia (GA) application, which was sponsored by the Department of Industry (DoI), commencing in 2012. Explorer is a comprehensive and powerful modern web-based decision support tool utilising high quality data products to aid information discovery, visualisation and the modelling of planning and development scenarios using the best available data. Originally developed as a pipeline planning decision support system, Explorer continues to break new ground providing visualisation and decision support for a disparate-range of infrastructure, planning and modelling needs, across government and industry alike. Relevance Explorer provides the ability for government planners, regulators, investors and industry proponents to drill down into specific areas and analyse location information about the geography, infrastructure, geology, resources and the investment potential of Australia. Explorer currently utilises modelling techniques such as multi-criteria analysis for: 1) least cost path route selection and assessment for major infrastructure such as pipelines, roads, rail and transmission lines; and 2) can be further enhanced to identify and assess critical infrastructure location options for infrastructure such as, power stations, airports, ports, renewable energy facilities and water catchment reservoirs. First-pass planning & analysis and delivery of investment opportunities information Explorer brings national and local scale data together from multiple sources with a powerful visualisation capability, in an intuitive interface. Originally designed to provide linear infrastructure first-pass planning, Explorer has been successfully adapted to provide capabilities for investment opportunity analysis, including; economic fairways modelling, offshore marine and fisheries decision support, infrastructure planning and natural hazards modelling. What if analysis The tools provided by Explorer allow the creation of optimal routes or locations for future infrastructure what if modelling tasks, taking into account factors such as terrain, geology, land use restrictions and natural hazards such as flood and earthquake zones. The what-if modelling functionality can be equally applied to future development and investment planning tasks, using appropriate data to provide an overview of the proposed development and investment potential of a geographic region or defined area. Evidenced-based Modelling outputs and planning scenarios are supported by decision support documentation, automatically generated by Explorer. Data provenance including metadata records are provided as evidence of the data and modelling algorithms used, giving complete transparency to the modelling task. Collaborative platform Explorer provides a collaborative workspace, enabling users to create secure projects, where access can be limited to those individuals selected by the project initiator. Future capabilities will allow the saving of sessions within the project workspace. Secure data Explorer is a secure platform allowing users to access predefined data layers and their own data for modelling and assessment purposes. Restricted datasets and modelling outputs are stored securely and access locked down to authorised users only.

  • The k index is a quasilogarithmic index of geomagnetic activity relative to an assumed quiet day curve for the recording site. k is a code from 0-9 that characterizes magnetic activity (0 being the least active field and 9 the most active field) over a 3 hour period.

  • Collection of tsunami related codes
