Abstract
Publicly available baseline surface water data are compiled to provide a common information base for resource development and regulatory decisions in the north Bowen Basin region. This data guide captures existing knowledge of the catchments and watercourses overlying the north Bowen Basin, including streamflow quality and quantity, inundation and climatological data. Most of the north Bowen Basin falls to the east of the Great Dividing Range within the Fitzroy River catchment. The basin also includes part of the Burdekin River catchment and small parts of the coastal catchments of Styx and Burnett river catchments. The data on the catchments overlying the north Bowen Basin have been summarised at a point in time to inform decisions on resource development activities. Key data sources are available from the Water Monitoring Information Portal (Queensland Government), Water Data Online (Bureau of Meteorology), DEA Water Observations (Geoscience Australia) and Terrestrial Ecosystem Research Network.

Lineage
This package has been developed as part of the the Trusted Environmental and Geological Information program (TEGI), and is providing better and more streamlined access to information and data for geological basins prospective for energy, carbon capture and storage, groundwater and minerals. The program has identified and collated trusted baseline data and information for four prospective basin regions and supplement it with new geological and environmental assessments. This information will provide Australian governments, industry and communities with the highest-quality trusted science available to make faster, clearer decisions and provide better outcomes for the environment and water resources.
